Ship date needs to be pushed back
Hi,
I'm new to this, so forgive me if I'm not doing this format correctly. My husband and I signed our son into the delayed entry program for the Marine Corp"s". The recruiters told us that he would go in September 2018 as he is still 17 and will be graduating high school in June. He took his ASVAB and scored a 53. He would like to be in the infantry. After he took his test and went for his physical they gave him a ship date of July 9th, 2018. We have told the recruiter July is too soon. We were told September. As it is my husband and I are having a hard time our son is leaving let alone him leaving 30 days instead of 90 days after graduation in June like the recruiter told us. We asked to have the date changed to September. The recruiter told us he will tell us boss and see what they can do. My question is, what can I do to have the ship date changed to September?
Thank you
Betty
