I prefer muh Jarhead version:

The second phase of Marine Corps basic training consists of learning how to fire your weapon, forced marches, and learning how to live in the field, eat MREs, and survive as a Marine.

 

The first week of second phase consists of your first competitions between platoons, Initial Drill. All the skills you learned in first phase are put to the test and your drill instructors are scored based on your performance. Anything less than first place gets you Incentive Training. And first place gets you even more so your platoon doesn’t get cocky. I hope you can see the pattern developing here.

 

The second week consists of “snapping-in” and is known as “grass week.” This is learning the various firing positions that you will use at 200-, 300-, and 500 yards. The third week is all firing on the known-distance or KD course. During this time, your drill instructors will be a little more laid back. They really want you to learn how to fire your weapon effectively. The final week consists of field-firing, which means moving targets, unknown distances, and a night shoot.

 

At the end of each week of firing on the rifle range, you will conduct forced marches of 3, 5 and 8 miles respectively. Don’t be fooled, with the added weight of your pack, flak jacket, helmet, and weapon, this will be tough.

 

Semper Fi, faggots!
