Straighten your shit out before you post here bro and make sure your sober.

Yup, so why are you telling us. If you really want to change then just do it, toss the booze and the smokes out of the window, right now.
Also, if you are going to change it must be for yourself. Change because YOU want yourself to be a better person, not just because to want to join the CORPS.

well one word of advice, don't show up at the recruiting office drunk.

The Marine Corps will NOT straighten you out. Only YOU can do that, the Corps will merely provide the framework, the opportunity, and a little motivation. The rest is up to you.

A lot of folks who didn't understand that were shipped home early from Parris Island and San Diego.

Well i saw a couple of dudes who out of bootcamp came out ok, but once they hit the fleet they start drinking and smoking again. So joining the Corps won't help you quit. I mean c'mon, how are you expecting to join the Corps and quit smoking and drinking if we were founded in a Bar?
