First, when using the word Marines, it will be capitlized at all times, it's in the rules.
Second, use proper sentence structure, like capital letters at the beginning of a sentence and periods at the end. I have no idea what you just asked......http://www.theofficialsoulpatrol.com/forum/Smileys/Lots_O_Smileys/icon_scratch.gif (http://javascript<b></b>:void(0);) because it all runs together.

Well if you DEP in june (from my understanding, you can't DEP a junior till june) they can get you the Recon program for sure. The reason is because you DEP in june and don't got to boot camp till next june. You would have a chance to get that recon program because you will have first choice when the MOS's come out for next FY. Also, there will probably be Marines on this site that say "worry about boot camp first" before thinking recon. I won't give you an discouraging or negative info, if recon is the way you want to go, Do it. Yes, the odds are against you as far as making it, but thats when Marines perform their best. So go get that title Marine, then go get the title of Recon. MMA or anything else will be there when you decide to leave the Corps. I suggest you you consider the Marines first if its been a dream of yours. Lets say you go and try MMA, but get a serious injury that could make you go from being qualified for the Corps to being DQ'd. I have seen happen one too may times when I was on recruiting duty. Best of luck.
