Marines,
I'm currently about to go to MEPs here in the next couple of weeks to sign a reservist contract. I'm also in the process of taking the written tests for several cities in the nearby region as a Police Officer. I currently live in Florence Al, so based on my address, would drill in Huntsville. However, if I continue through the pipeline for this Police Job, in Hoover Al, I would obviously move down there, and would be closest to the nearby Bessemer base which is in the next town over. If I'm working and living around the Hoover area I would be beyond the 100 mile mark to go Huntsville. I'm wondering what you all would reccomend, or if anyone foresees any problems with this. Would I simply be able to report to a different kind of job training because the Reserve base in Bessemer has different jobs than the one in Huntsville? Or would I have to complete one job training and then get retrained later for the reserve base I moved too?
Thank you in advance.
