      The white gunk under your foreskin is in truth called smegma. A lot of lads of all ages aren't educated about it. Apart from being smelly and not great for intimate moments, smegma build up is a factor for penile cancer so every shower/bath make sure to lather and rinse, esp if in field/outdoors environment and after ejaculation, when it builds up.
      A tight foreskin, one that rolls back easily over the head of the penis is called phimosis. It can be cured by stretching, including regular washing can help or circumcision for the foreskin. It's important to keep clean for hygiene and health.
      It's not like douching for women where washing can disrupt their vaginal pH flora, thrush, etc, it doesn't work that way for men. Roll back, wash all the around, inside out and in the corners near the head and rinse it clean from soap with luke warm water. Doesn't need to be rubbed dry using a towel or paper.

      USMarineRifleman0311 That was funny. But if you do your research you would learn that there were only 68 marines on the island, which was brought down to 44 when 22 of them actually ended up fighting the Argentinian invasion force head on taking out a 260ft warship and helicopters. Described as a modern day "rorke's drift" they ended up being forced to surrender and told to surrender the island by the British government where they were escorted off the island only to come back later and recapture it.

    I'm a Hospital Corpsman in the U.S Navy (same as medical assistant, we serve on ships and with the Marines). I have to say the more I see of the Royal Marines and British Army the more I am convinced that they are better trained. Their quality life and morale seems significantly higher as well. In this particular video, there is a clear mutual respect between the instructors and recruits. For example, that friendly exchange between the officer and recruit about the values of the Royal Marines would never, ever happen in any U.S military boot camp. Perhaps I've had bad luck with instructors, in any case, I am very impressed with the British Armed Forces.

    17th of September, 2024 - I applied at the start of the year, failed the DAA to get in as an officer twice, but am now through to attempt the CPC as an enlistee. I head off at the end of the month, process takes a long time after the DAA, but please, and I am begging you, keep working on your fitness all the time, rest is extremely important, but make sure you’re working on an aspect of your fitness while resting elsewhere.

    Orlando Rogers was tragically killed in a Tiger Moth accident which was piloted by his friend: Tributes have been pouring in for former Lympstone Royal Marine Orlando Rogers, 26, who died in hospital after a crash in a Tiger Moth aeroplane. The man who died after a recent plane crash in Dorset was an ‘inspirational’ former Royal Marine who trained at Lympstone Commando Training Camp. Orlando Rogers, 26, from Poole, was a passenger in a friend’s Tiger Moth when it got into trouble at around 1,500 feet, coming down in a field near Witchampton on May 15.

    I met Lieutenant Rodgers when he was in officer training. He was a different beast. He was 18 years old when he took commission as a Royal Marines officer and went on to serve in Northern Ireland as lieutenant and later served in Afghanistan as Captain. The recruit troop he commanded through training in this documentary were known as Hollywood troop by other recruit troops at lympstone at the time but despite the name they were held to the highest standards of any troop in training at the time. Orlando is a legend within the corps and his death in an aviation accident was a tremendous shock and tragedy to anyone who had been privileged enough to have been graced by his presence. A truly exceptional person and his legacy is recognised by the Orlando Rodgers foundation. I was introduced to Orlando by a friend of mine who failed the officer selection Orlando passed and subsequently joined as a recruit and passed out as a royal marines commando. He later became a medic and transferred to the navy because of promotional opportunities. On that night in torquay Orlando was in fancy dress as a fairy, an enormous, muscular fairy 😂😂

Everyone has different experiences with a group of soldiers. I've met great marines and great soldiers as well as the dumbest. You can't decide what the quality of a program is on the basis of a TV show or what 4 troopers did during an exercise. And I will be the first to agree on the British sense of humor. They just do things that Americans don't get so you have to expect that what they do under training is just different than what an american soldier or marine will go through.

Like you are an outsider to this world so you internalise your own fantasy in your mind. Some people may call it weak to not join the army but to me it's a blessing and a curse to be able to do something with my life that I'll enjoy. I want to see the world without having to face conflict while there. I want to stare at the stars on dark electric nights and imagine myself on the moon. I want to paint, write and make music about the gift of life.
    I don't know if some God created us, but what I do know is that I won't waste this gift on fighting others.
    I don't want to ever take that light out of someone's soul, so I'm blessed but cursed because I know I'm weak but that weakness is what makes me a man because if you truly enjoy life then you wouldn't take that from someone else.
