Who is on the heads side of the US dime?
The dime is the American coin valued at ten (10) cents; one tenth of a dollar. Each United States coin bears the image of a person.
The dime bears the image of President Franklin D. Roosevelt. The dime is the thinnest of United States coins and smallest minted for circulation.
A portrait of Franklin Roosevelt, 32nd President of the United States, appears on the front of the US dime.
Did you know that nowhere on the dime does it state its actual value in cents or dollars?
CorrectionThe word "dime" IS the coin's denomination. The dime was intended to be a separate unit in a 10-based coinage system which included mills, eagles, and unions in addition to the familiar dollars and cents:10 mills = 1 cent
10 cents = 1 dime
10 dimes = 1 dollar
10 dollars = 1 eagle
10 eagles = 1 union
Mills and unions were never used, and eagles were only used for gold coins. People found it easier to express prices simply in dollars and cents, so the denominations "dime" and "eagle" exist only in the names of those coins.

Officers out rank all enlisted personnel. So, it would be an officer. The third highest would be a Lieutenant General (O-9). That's assuming there's an 0-11, General of the Army that is active, which it isn't all the time. In that case it would be one rung lower, Brigadier General (O-8).

Do you have to be a Marine before you become a Drill Instructor?
Even with a PhD from the Marquise de Sade University and four years of experience as a prison guard at SuperMax plus two years as a Bad Guy in the World Wrestling Federation and elective throat surgery to give you a super growling voice you may be rejected from this very difficult assignment. The DI is a rare breed indeed whose skill set includes being a mother hen, a martinet, a perfectionist, a priest, a nit-picker and a first class monster at the same time. He or she has only one task, and that is to produce only the genuine article: A United States Marine.
Nothing else can be allowed and nothing less is acceptable. If you think that you have the right stuff, apply for it.

What is the role of a Squad Leader in Marine Corp Boot Camp?

What is the average retirement of a 4 star general?
They have to retire the month following their 64th birthday but usually retire well in advance of this, so as to not impede the promotions of subordinates. However the Secretary of Defence can defer it until the month after the officers 66th birthday and the president can defer it until their 68th birthday. If your promoted to 5 star General, you remain on the active list for life.
How long is Marine Officer School?
Only enlisted personnel in the United States military branches are generally bound to a specific service requirement, which is at this time eight years (at least four of active duty, and the balance of inactive reserve service).
Officers in the U.S. military generally serve at their pleasure and may resign their commissions at any time... though deployed personnel must of course wait for the end of their current tour.
The exception to this rule is when specific training is tied to a service commitment. For example, an officer who received four years of tuition through a Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) program, will be required to 'repay' this through a specified number of years of service, typically four years, after which they would serve until they resign. Another excellent example is for other expensive and lengthy training, such as pilot training.
Another exception is that sometimes accepting a promotion (notably to O-4/Major) may require a service commitment. It is for this reason that there are occasional situations where an officer may request being passed over for promotion, or refuse one awarded.
These regulations change with time, and one's officer recruiter should be consulted for specific current regulations.
How do you turn in an AWOL Marine?
You can check, but it is questionable as to whether local law enforcement will want to handle this inasmuch as the enforcement of military law is out of their jurisdiction. I would contact your nearest military installation (if one is near you) or the local office of the FBI (listed in the front of the phonebook in the government pages) or perhaps even your neighborhood military recruiting office.
How do you write a USMC rebuttal statement?
Rebuttal statements are used in a debate, where the opposing side gets to respond to the arguments. Unless the format of the debate is known in advance, it is hard to have it written in advance. The great thing about debating is learning to think up quick, logical responses in a discussion.

Can you keep your marine corps uniforms after your service is up?
Normally, no. If you retired honorably or were discharged for medical reasons, you can wear the uniform on appropriate ocassions.
***Actually former Marines may wear their uniform in additional to those who retired. The Marine Corps Uniform Regulations (MARINE CORPS ORDER P1020.34G - http://www.marines.mil/news/publications/Documents/MCO%20P1020.34G%20W%20CH%201-5.pdf) states the following:
Former Members of the Armed Forces. Unless qualified under another
provision of this Order or under the provisions of 10 U.S.C. 772, former members who served honorably during a declared or undeclared war and whose most recent service was terminated under honorable conditions may wear the uniform in the highest grade held during such war service only upon the following occasions and in the course of travel incident thereto:
(1) Military funerals, memorial services, weddings, and inaugurals.
(2) Parades on national or state holidays; or other parades or
ceremonies of a patriotic character in which any active or reserve United States military unit are taking part. 'Wearing of the uniform or any part thereof at any other time or for any purpose is prohibited.'
Similar wording is also found in the Marine Corps Separations Manual (MCO P1900.16F)
Why is the Marines so much better then the Army?
The Marine Corps have the toughest boot camp in the entire world...they are the nations finest warriors - this branch is the most physically demanding out of all other branches because you have to run 3 miles in 28 minutes - plus they are the only branch that requires you do dead hang pull ups (unless you're a chick in which you do something similar) but also you must do about 55 sit ups in 2 minutes and 5 dead hang pull ups...the whole mentality of the Marine Corps is toughness, the Crucible which is the 'final exam' if you will, of boot camp is tougher than anything any other boot camp has to endure (you should look up the USMC crucible it's really interesting)...Marines need to be hardcore because they are the tip of the spear, so to speak, the first one to go on, kickin down the door if you will...unless of course you count like navy seals but you have to go to boot camp before you can become a seal, and marine corps boot camp is the best one to prepare you for seals or anything like that.
