Topic: Joining the Corps.

Three months ago I told my manager I was done with graphic design and told her I'm quiting my job. The last three months I've spend showing my succesor the ropes here at the office.

Why? Because I've decided to follow up on a life long dream of mine, to join the Royal Dutch Marine Corps! I liked my old job, I really did, and I'll probably revisit it some day when I'm older. But now that I can still be called young, I want to spend my time outside of some office building.

I passed the corps psychological/physical test and was told thats the easy part. Soon I will be starting the "EVO" (Elementaire Vak Opleiding / Elementary training). I can't wait! big_smile

Re: Joining the Corps.

Plenty of jungle over there Primo. (to be honest, Curacao is the chill out location, sort of. Still plenty of training going on there so I am told)

For really hot and sticky jungle we also go to Suriname, Brunei, Belize, Guyana or Ghana;
