Leathernecks, I just got out last August but, I still wanna be involved with the Corps. I'm giving some serious thought into signing a 3 year obligation with the reserves. Because of my location and me just wanting to do something different I am going to be choosing a new job. I pretty sure I wanna do something in the 08xx Artillery field. I'm wondering if anyone out there has tried doing the same thing and if so, did they give you the job field(08xx) in your contract or the actual specific MOS you wanted. I ask because I am trying to get 0861. But from what I hear, most guys end up getting 0811. Is this different for prior service reservists? Any insight would be awesome guys.:evilgrin:
