A little off topic but, are there any Marines outside of ANGLICO, Recon,Force Recon,and MARSOC that perform Airborne or Air Assault ops?

Got me!

Here's my suggestion: One character quality that bodes well in the Marine Corps is initiative.

You've gotten some suggestions on how to research and that information IS available if you show more initiative in doing so.

thanks for reminding me MOS4429 INITIATIVE is a word in my MCJROTC knowledge packet and I got the info Grunts can go Scout Swimmer depending on their Swim Qual and I also found that there is a Parachutist MOS using wikipedia. Thanks Again!!
