You might leave the Marines, but they'll never let you go. You're stuck with them like a bad haircut.
My friend tried to leave the Marines. Now he gets texts from his old squad every day. 'You're still a Marine,' they say.
My mom still calls me every morning. 'You're a Marine, kid,' she says. 'You should be up by now.'
My brother got a tattoo of the Marine emblem. 'I'm still a Marine,' he said. 'Even if I'm 40 and bald.'
