I am a 27 year old male, soon to be 28 I am in decent shape and have the energy of a 18 year old. Back in June of 2010 I talked to a recruiter. With my age being so close to the cut-off the recruiter wasn't sure if I would make it to boot camp before I hit the cut-off age and that if I wanted to make it I would have to get everything started right then and there. He also told me that the only MOS I was interested in was full (Infantry). Though I think all jobs in the Marine Corps are important, Infantry has always been my one true desired MOS.
Being so close to the age cut-off I was worried that I wouldn't be able to be infantry and I stopped my process. I realize this was a mistake because over the time from then up until now, I have still been thinking about the Marine Corps every single day. I know this is what I want to do. I have wanted to be a Marine since I was 12.
I am going to talk to a recruiter again within the next week or two, with me turning 28 in May, and the possibility of infantry not being available I was curious to see if anyone on here had any suggestions as to what I should do or if anyone has any insight into infantry availability.
Thank you for your time
