The bigger problem is that you went to meps got DQ, they put a BUMED in and that got denied. Going to be brutally honest, the chances of you joining with a denied BUMED are slim to none.

You should have filled out a background questionnaire. With the where I worked, do I have a passport, who my family is all that stuff. Every so often they pick random poolees to go over that info...

Talk and listen to your recruiter. He is there for you. Also google HIPPA rules. They apply to everyone. Like I said just talk this all over with your recruiter.

For everyone out there, if you have scars you are pretty much done. That would be a DQ with a waiver with a slim chance of happening.

You also have to remember they have a schedule to ship someone. They can't just move you to any month you want. Some months 4 people are supposed to leave some 6 some just 3. So even if a DD job...

Do not, do not, do not, might I repeat do not get married before boot camp. You then become a waiver for having a dependent and having an active duty spouse. Best case scenario your date for boot...

We could give you dozens of people who say joining now is the best thing ever, and probably dozens of people who will tell you joining right now is the worst thing ever. Get the facts from people...

You can not join the DEP until the end of your junior year anyway. The recruiter can explain all the benefits like being able to go to college while serving and after, the money you make, and...

Unless you are acquitted, the Marine Corps counts it as guilty. That is the quick guide. Your only hope is if that dreaded "D" word doesn't show up anywhere. And trust me, the government doesn't...

Recruiting stations now can set their own standards for someone to ship. The big push now is quality over quantity. It looks really bad if someone fails the IST at boot, and with sleep deprivation...

Something is up. We see all our jobs a year out from Oct to Sept. Every recruiting station in your area pulls from that job pool. They might not have an infantry spot open for that date and don't...

Do not go reserves if you don't want to. They are heavily pushing reserves, but if you are willing to wait then active spots are out there. Probably about 1 spot every 2 months are for active duty...

For new joins the Marine Corps does not tape. Either you are overweight by the height and weight standards or not. Although for males you are given extra weight. For example to join for 6'4 you...

Yeah the DLAB is not based on any language. Also, if you can speak a language perfectly I doubt they will make you that type of linguist. They would make you another type so you would have 2...

Security officer is a billet filled at an intel unit. It is an officer billet with duties delegated on down to junior Marines and NCOs. Usually the actual security officer is the BN CO or someone...

1. No you do not need college experience.
2. Everything I have heard and read said that most boards don't like college experience until you are PME complete as much as you can be. I'm not saying...

Read the next line. He clearly put that he was going to wait until after MOS school.

I have to answer this profile or not because that is a huge lie. Open contract means you get whatever the Marine Corps needs. If they need another grunt, you will be a grunt. Same with any other...

Save all medical bills for tricare. You are considered covered the first day of the marriage so they will back pay. Same with BAH, he will get backpay from the day he rates it.

That is wrong. Don't pass rumor as fact please, family members worry enough without hearing a bunch of rumors that may or may not be true.

That does not go for recruits. The cammies they wear are determined by the phase they are in. It allows people to easily tell what phase they are in. I think it goes desert, woodland, then back to...

It probably means that recruiting efforts for officers will increase near colleges with more black students. It doesn't mean the bar is being lowered, it just means that recruiting drives will...

Let me clear up some stuff. First all physical training like organized pt, hikes, and other things of that nature take place mostly in the morning. It doesn't get black flag until about 10 on most...

That is actually incorrect now. I guess they just changed it or something. When I got my orders after re-enlisting I contacted the base housing office and had to fax my orders and information to...

My wife and I knew each other for a few years as friends, and dated a few months maybe. We had a great foundation and just clicked. I was 20 when we married and she was 25. Luckily she had enough...
