Today was my day of redemption on the Rifle Range. I left Table One with a 219 score…needing a 220 to qualify expert. That meant that I needed 86 out of 100 ponits from Table Two in order to qualify expert. I was on fire today. Almost literally. I shot a 96 out of 100 and obtained my Expert Rifleman status and medal. The medal is silver and has two rifles crossing each other with a banner in the background. Rifle Expert is the highest level that can be achieved.
I had another great milestone today. Our Platoon ran the Fire Under Maneuver portion of the CFT in full utility uniforms and I scored second highest in my Platoon with a time of 2:14. The recruit that beat me did it in 2:08. The course included sprints, bear crawls, low crawls, ammo can carries, push ups, grenade toss, body drag, fireman’s carry and ammo can sprints. My previous time was 2:37. The minimum requirement is 3:30. We had 4 or 5 recruits that failed. Nobody finishes the Combat Fitness Test in great shape. You always feel dead at the end.
With only 24 DAYS LEFT at Marine Corps Recruit Training, I’m getting even more anxious to get home to my wife and family. To this day, being away from my wife has been the #1 most difficult part of this all. I’m thankful for the new appreciation I had for family though. Priceless.

Do you know what the girls have to score for the riffle range? Because all the girls at my recreuiting station ended up having to stay in bootcamp for an extra month because they didn’t do so well on the riffle range.. So im asking so i know what to practice on before i leave because my dad’s friend is a former Marine, current Coast Gaurd, who said he’ll take me to practice my shooting.
I’m trying to be the FIRST girl to make it back in exactly 3 months..
