Teneriffe: Corporal of the Guard

Teneriffe just wants to be a United States Marine, but first he has to make it past the drill instructors. Their cruel and sometimes immature tactics don’t impress him, but he’s willing to jump through hoops to achieve his dream—that is until he pops positive for marijuana on the Marine recruit’s initial urinalysis.

Now, not only is he dealing with the strenuous training all Marines face, but he’s also become a target. He must endure a series of outrageous interviews from his superior officers hell bent on a full confession. They’ll do anything to get him to profess guilt, from fear tactics to humiliation. He navigates literal and figurative obstacle courses to stay on track.

Teneriffe’s experiences range from the brutally funny to heavy metal violence. Still, he won’t stop, no matter what. He’ll show up his drill instructors. He’ll beat his training into submission. Will he give in to lurid accusations if it earns him a spot serving his country? Surrounded on all sides by enemies, Teneriffe must decide how far he’s willing to go to become a Marine.
