Ha I know most of you havent heard from me in a long time. Had some set backs but I also ship on the 27th. Hope to see you two there. Last name is Poske hopefully we will be in the same Battalion. Anyways I've had so much information obtained from the site its rediculous. Its been a long time since I have been on the site due to not having a computer. My father got me a laptop for christmas so Im jumping on it tonight while I can still use it. Motivated and ready to hit the Island. See all of you in March.

Its great to have you back on board Bill, I wondered why I couldnt find you at roll call. Good luck to you on your quest to become one of us.

How do i find out what battalion i will be in?

[Poskew]

No idea bud. Whats your last name so I know who you are if you are getting screamed at.

How do i find out what battalion i will be in?

Might want to ask your recruiter or the Marines at your MEPS that complete your MEPS paperwork.

Go to the MCRDSD or MCRDPI websites and then go to the graduation schedules page, then count 13 weeks forward from what your ship date is to find out what your graduation date is and it will say what Company and Battalion is graduating on that date, and that's who you'll be with. I'm shipping January 8th and i'll be with Echo Co. 2nd RTBn. You won't know what your platoon will be until you're actually there though.

Ya'll will be graduating on April 6, 2007 with Echo Company 2nd Recruit Training Battalion.

Wow, so even though you guys are shipping 1.5 weeks before me, we'll be graduating at the same time?

[Poskew]

Any major differences between the RTBn., two Marines on Recruiting Assistance were telling me something along the lines of one is harder than the other. Not to sure.

[jinelson]

John how do you figure you will graduate on April 13, 2007 with India Company 3rd Recruit Training Battalion?

April 6th, 2007 is 13 weeks from when I ship and April 13th would be 14 weeks, so going by that I would graduate April 6th with Echo Co., 2nd RTBn.
