Marine Corps Commercials T-Shirt

This Product is Discontinued

You wanna know why the Marines always hit their recruiting numbers?

Those glorious commercials.

The Navy uses Keith David's soothing baritone voice and flashy images of virtually unattainable SEALs. The Air Force uses images of supersonic jets that about five guys in the entire service get to fly. My beloved Army is still recovering from the abomination that was "An Army of One", but even with their much improved "Army Strong" campaign, they're still peddling college as their primary join-up motivator.

The Marines? You guys have an unkempt bad ass climb-to-the-top-of-a-freakin' mountain with the ghosts of warrior's past cheering him on, where he fights an evil warlord (or dragon - or whatever needed to be dominated on top of the mountain that day), and then, once victory is achieved, your untrained, but tough as nails dude turns into an impeccably groomed, uniformed Marine. Seriously, how much more badass can you get?

In fact, one of those commercials was just on and I suddenly realized that I was holding the phone with a recruiter on the other line…I think I just joined the Marines.
