Army Guard to USMC

[jc091393]

Hello, I am currently a Private First Class in the Army National Guard. I'm wanting to switch to the USMC and earn the title of Marine. I have a few questions.

First, is the USMC taking prior service at the moment? Secondly, my MOS is 13B cannon crewmember, if I were to go into the USMC and got an 0800 slot would I have to redo MOS school? And lastly, I know I'd be knocked down to E-2 when I switch, but would my prior service help in getting my E-3 faster?

Thank you for your time and thank you in advance for your replies!

The only potential Recruits the Marine Corps is looking to Enlist right now are High School Seniors with 15 College Credits that need no waivers.

The United States Marine Corps is downsizing and looking for the " Best of the Best ".

Things might change in the future, they always do.
