MCRD San Diego Anyone???

[HopefulGrunt2Be]

I'm leaving for San Diego 20060403
03XX, infantry option
Who else is going to SD, if so when do you leave, maybe we'll see each other there. I'm so excited I'm already having trouble sleeping at night thinking about it.

I leave 20060522, so we might see each other from a distance or something.

I'm going in as an 0621, Field Radio Operator AKA Battery Operated Grunt!

Yeah, that's what I heard. Thankfully the FROC course is only 6 weeks long, from what I've been told.

Which one hand is cool, because less time in 29 stumps. On the other hand, it's not so cool, because I can't bring a vehicle, so I'm definately there for 6 weeks.

OH well.

Smalcom: Hah. I hope not! My reserve unit is a Recon unit so hopefully we'll be sneaky enough not to get shot at too much!

you wont need a car. i was there for 4 and a half months and didnt need one. where is your reserve unit?

[HopefulGrunt2Be]

Any grunts out there want to tell me how SOI was??? Not trying to get ahead of myself, just kinda curious. What all determines what you do in the infantry? Is it simply what you are best at?

[VaMarine]

Ahh MCRD SD where Marines are trained,

Fondest Memory was when the Drill Instructor asked if we wanted to call home... Then took us out to the Fence and every time a plane took off we were to Scream for Home.... hahaha soo great..

The only reason I wanted one is because it's so close to Vegas(I'm 21), San Diego, Los Angeles, etc. I thought it would be nice to be able to go to those places on the weekend, plus I have family in the San Diego area.

My Reserve unit is based out of Anchorage, Alaska, why do ya ask?
