MOS 0326 Question

[93F22A6]

Hello Marines, I have a few question about Recon. Some have already been answered by the sticky (very helpful) and some by searching. I haven't been able to find out what being Parachute and Combatant Diver Qualified would intel the Marine to be doing. Just curious as if you would be more centered to the Op's that envolve diving or Jumping out of an Airplane. I talked a little with my recuirter (Stg Caldwell) and didn't get much considering his MOS is in Avionics(on recuirting duty). Also was wondering if there was a rank requirement for this MOS. Any help is well appricated Marines, I have plenty of time to decide what my MOS will be I just want to get an idea of my main interest since I'm am enlisting in June (next opening, and very excited/motivate)
