Motor T

The most badass and laid back MOS in the Marine Corps. Not always the brightest, but generally good guys to be around. Jobs involve driving big trucks and Humvees, hauling anything and everything, and having 126,362,791 vehicle inspections a month. The saying in Motor T (or Motor Tizzle as it was known in my unit) is "If you can't truck it, fuck it".

Infantry Marine: Oh fuck, why are those guys shooting the shit in their trucks and were out here digging another fuckin fighing hole?!?!!?

Other Marine:Because that's Motor T. Why did I sign up for this shit? It sounded exciting at the time...
