I just failed at the Navy boot camp (failed water jump). I'm wondering if I should even attempt to try Marine boot camp. I heard the crucible is a humbler. I wanted to be a Marine since I was young but can only qualify as a reservist. Can anyone whose been to Marine boot tell me what it's like?
:confused:

No need to reply. The cut off age is 29(Wish I had known that sooner). I just turned 31 on the 23rd.

There are waivers for everything pretty much. Talk to a different recruiter if you need to. I knew people in their 30s in boot camp. As long as you meet the requirements, you're fine. Just look into it again. Get yourself in good shape and figure out why you failed swim so you can pass this time. Good luck!
