Do you want to get back in?
Some good news for a change for Prior Service Marines looking to reenlist.
The USMC is looking to let 300 Prior Service Marines back in this fiscal year (began on Oct 1st). Various MOS's are needed but the most critical are infantry, intelligence, and aviation maintenance. Only those who got out at the end of their enlistment are eligible (no TERA/VSP early outs). Reenlistment bonuses will be paid to those eligible MOS's and lateral moves will be considered.
See your Prior Service Recruiter ASAP. Once these 300 positions are gone they're gone. MARADMIN 481/15 is the resource.

I'll vouch for you, Pat, if verification is needed (for a fee)

Top, this is surprising news, as for years now, prior service folks were told, hey, we're taking new guys only. Thanks for posting this.

The fee is non refundable, of course, and is due up front, even if you don't decide to pursue this, that way at least one of us comes out ahead.

Top, I wish we could somehow reach out retroactively to the tons of Marines who have asked if they could possibly get back in the Corps, and we all said, accurately, probably not.

Since I have no wrinkles and still have my athletic abilities all I need is a waver for my beard and long hair. I always wanted to be in the infantry that drives you around instead of having to hump everywhere. And I could get used to hot chow and movies at night and sleeping in a nice rack. Also, how do the mamasons look? Come to think of it, I also need a waver for my beer ration.

Believe they cut a little deeper and quicker in a few MOS's than intended which is no surprise. They are getting closer to that final 182,000 number and doing a little tweaking now.
Also, more first term Marines than expected have signaled their intentions of getting out. Mostly because, they are not doing what they signed up to do - mainly deploy somewhere. They are not loving garrison life - and all the petty rules that come along with it.

Same thing we tell the wannabes all the time. Who knows. You'll just have to cross that bridge when you get to it Devil. Nothing is certain anymore. By that time, you may increase your odds if you become a female Marine. lol
Will you be looking at your required "B" billet around that time (what direction are you leaning towards)?
