At my RS, the last time I heard, the next open ship spot was in... December of next year, I believe. But the Recruiters aren't really cutting people yet. Not that I really stick around and socialize...

Not to drill on the same point and sound like a broken record player, but I had the same thoughts for a while too. I saw all my friends going to college and living that life and I looked at mine and...

****, my apologies! It was like 0330 when I wrote that and I must not have been paying much attention.
Now I feel REALLY stupid.

Hell why don't you? I am not saying anything to stop you.

Thanks, Pfc, I thought that was the right thing to do, but like I mentioned in my post it was suggested to me to focus on Boot now and MOS's later. I talked with my Recruiter, he has a couple hours...

I ship on October 14, any others out there going to SD and shipping on the same day?

I don't know what his deal is, but I've been training myself to be a Marine since I was like 5 years old when I saw the commercial on tv that had the guy climbing up a cliff and in the cliff were all...

Even if the system is flawed in my personal, unexperienced, stupid Poolee opinion it isn't about whether or not you get caught. It's about personal Integrity to know what is right and to abide by the...

I have a friend who's in the Air Force and he said that they aren't "random" in any way, shape or form. But they're consistent enough to the point where it's impossible to get away with it. Not to...

I was told the exact same thing. You can ask and plead for a certain MOS, but the need of the Corps are served first.

Well, welcome to the ranks!
If you have any questions feel free to ask. Most of us here are good people, minus a turd or two.

For the record, it's 'fault'.
But it's my fault. I didn't look it up. And he might just not be telling me the truth because he wants me to do something more technical or in an MOS other then 03XX....

Awww, does that mean I shouldn't ask my Recruiter if I'll have time to take smoke breaks while in Boot?

My GT Score was 110, I believe, and I'll assume since it doesn't say Color Vision is required then it isn't required. Alright, I'm done bothering you fine Marines. I'll let you help out some other...

Will do. I wonder if there's a level of colorblindness or something like that. I didn't know I was Colorblind at all until I went down to MEPS.

I'm sorry to continue to bug you fine Marines with my petty questions, as soon as I get this one answered I will stop bugging you for a while.
I DEP'd in not to long ago and am leaving for Boot in...

Wow! You did better then me, I got a 85. I'll talk to him tomorrow and tell him I want 03xx. Again, thanks for the info, you just brought my dream back to life!

Well it's my fault for not researching it. I know that he has done nothing but help me, so I don't know if maybe he is just misinformed, or if he's trying to keep me out of an 03xx field because of...

Yeah, Cpl, I know it's the right thing to do. But I don't want my Recruiter, and every other Recruiter in the office to think I'm some kind of rat. I've thought about that long and hard, it's just a...

I've already chewed his ass for that. I may not have the Eagle, Globe and Anchor nor do I bear the title United States Marine but I take pride in what I've decided to do. And I think it's like...

I got that from SSgt. Pierce(I think is his name) who is a chaperone at MEPS in Denver. And my Recruiter... I just believed them... My bad, I'll have to do some more research then. Thanks for...

Unless you're color blind, like myself.

Thank you Sgt. Leprechaun, Sgt. Artyops, and GySgts. Old Marine and MARINECID. He told me that they were not done intentionally, but my girlfriend is a long time friend of his and she's telling me...

Do you still have to finish High School?
