    He's been at MCRD San Diego for a few days now.

    I plan to buy him a laser engraved Ka-Bar when he graduates.

    Best of luck to him. He might have had time to sleep by now. Those first couple of days in receiving are pretty blurry....

    Every Marine should have at least a couple of Ka-Bars. A nice, maybe engraved one to show off, and another for work.

    Would he be allowed to have/keep the Ka-Bar in his barracks room once no longer in MOS training?

    Or would that be company/battalion specific guidance?

    No weapons on base. Depending who is higher up the food chain, either it will be ignored, or written up at the least.
