It is something your going to have to talk to your recruiter about. Best bet is to talk to them. You really need to be an ally with your recruiter not an enemy. They certaintly arent looking for more...

If you want to gamble on what your job will be for the next 4+ years of your life go early. If you want your MOS than simply wait until june or whenever your new date is. The recruiter can't make you...

If you want to be infantry than wait. you dont have to ship until the final time you go to meps. if they wont give it to you then tell them you wont go. or go to another recruiting office. if you...

I graduated HS early and near the top of my class. I went to Purdue university for two years while working and acting as a head mechanic and racing supermoto for a local shop. By my second year in...

Yeah came off as a dick its whatever. I understand its not your fault its more a gripe with Marine Corps comm in general than any of the people doing it.

And yeah as comm you have a pretty good...

Do you enjoy working in an office or do you want to be more on the ground?

What do you see yourself doing in the...

Your high. Comm rarely works anyways. But also you just graduated boot camp less than a month ago and think radio operators are what we need? We have battalions going through Viper right now missing...

I scored similar to you on the ASVAB. I was basically told that i could do literally anything i wanted to do in the Marines. I'm a ****ing grunt and i love my job. Its fulfilling and its what the...

Why dont you just go through OCS...it seems like you could be a pretty decent officer if your willing to put the work in and you can PT.

I'm sorry gunny...if you truly believe that some ipac Marine could do my job i think your crazy. Thats just an example but the old adage that "every Marine is a rifleman" is sort of a joke. We all...

If you want to see combat join as a grunt...if you dont care then for the love of god stay out of the 03 field.

Depending how your language skills are you may be able to go into a field such as...

If you want 03 you will have to wait. however that wait will probably be the best decision you ever make.

if you have any questions about that opinion feel free to PM me. might be easier that way.

Have fun...you get to go learn about a big fun m777...dont miss when i'm callin for you in afghan.

Saw most of the guys in my boot camp with open contracts go to comm crap. what do you want to to so bad anyways?

If your gonna be a Marine you might as well be a Grunt. POG's have their uses but ultimately we are a fighting force. If you are good with math being a mortarman might be a good choice for you. If...

If you want to see combat start looking at 03** fields...until then no. In my experience POG's on patrol most of the time are a liability not an asset.

The physical part of recon really isnt the hard part for a lot of the guys i was there with. Its a mind **** big time. I was friends with guys there who were PT GODS...could run 300 PFT's back to...

You can if you want to but you'll find that the diet barely supports the work you do do and the best thing you can do is focus on pull ups and crunches. Overall body work is just gonna make the rest...

POST...security forces is about memorizing everything and putting up with epic rations of ****.

Right now i'm currently enlisted as an Active duty contract. With a selected MOS. However lately i've really been thinking about switching to a Reserve contract so i can be with my daughter while she...

I think some of you mistook my "fear" of death as apprehension. I am willing to die if it is what it takes to keep my brothers and my sisters and more importantly my daughter living in this wonderful...

I don't know it entirely. I've lost close friends for stupid reasons but never because of me or at my fault. I hope i never do, that may be unrealistic with my MOS choice but if i do the best i can...

Absolutely LCpl...That is also a fear. To let down yourself is one thing. But your fellow brothers and sisters is even worse.

For whatever reason this seemed to be my question of the day at work and its really got me thinking. Or it did and now I've decided on my personal beliefs.

Basically 4 or 5 seperate people asked...

So it seems to me they treat it like men. If you get in a fight go at it for a bit and get over it. Take care of what needs to get taken care of and move the hell on.
