Hey guys, first off id like to give a thank you for your service.
My name is Andrew, I am 17, a senior in High School and im seriously considering the Marine Corps. Ive been talking with a local recruiter seriously for about a month on and off, and he has laid down some options. What i really want to do right now its join the reserves and my recruiter said an intel MOS opened up today and asked if I wanted to reserve it. I said I would have to talk to my parents. I would like to join the reserves so i am able to go to college and expireience what every kid wants, just to have fun.
When I discuss this with my father he naturally just wants to know all the facts and we actually sat down today with a recruiter. He showed my dad all the up and down sides of the Marines and all the plans. When I tried to discuss it with my mother she is dead set against it. She started to get all teary eyes, and told me I was believing a lie.
I really want to join the USMC and be apart of this elite brother hood.
Can you guys throw in some suggestions or comments about the reserves, or how to win my mother over into giving me her blessing.
