    Your recruiter was basically saying you won't have time to F with it until then. You have to contact the pay people at Admin. I don't know much more than that as I haven't done it in years.

    What he is saying is that drug deals can be made and pretty much anyone can get a seat at jump school. There are a lot of seats out there, and they often go unfilled. The issue is most commands...

    One thing to consider would be the drawdown's effect on the MOS. Most 0231's I talked to did the majority of actual work on deployments. With the Marine Corps thinning out, it may become a hard...

    For striking, your stances and blocks will be very different than shotokan karate. Some of the strikes are the same, but you won't really be learning oizuki/seikenzuki/munetsuki or whatever you want...

    MCCS, and retailers approved through that system, is your safest bet. Check with your command as they may have resources and guidance of their own.

    Best of luck.

    Well it may be easier to LAT move within your battalion but there is no guarantee an 0231 will get stationed at 1st, 2nd, or 3rd Intel Bn (where the companies are). The 0211 MOS requires a LAT move...

    Yeah, that's true. You likely won't be stationed in Jacksonvile or something like that. I think a lot of the allure of billets like AR or I&I is the static location and separation from the FMF.

    Don't put yourself in a critical MOS or you will be hard pressed to find a command willing to let you go. It is a good idea to find an MOS that will deploy you once or twice before you pick up Cpl...
