Calm down sarge, if you can't help don't bother posting. There are two contracts you can sign that offer the 21XX field. The one you're looking at is a CF contract which is ordy tech/machinist. Ordnance techs basically work in the armory or on arty pieces. Some are deployable, some are not like most POG MOS' in the Corps.

The other side of 21XX is the AAV/LAV tech. That's a mix of automotive and body work combined with optics and weapon systems on board. There are plenty of AAV techs who have combat action ribbons. It's probably more dangerous than infantry if you actually ride in those things. For the most part they're unarmored tanks. RPG's DO NOT bounce off those ****ing things. the EFV is total sh*t, but at least it's armored...

The 21XX armored vehicle tech may sound cool if you want to work on guns and cannons, but keep in mind you're going to be doing automotive work as well. So if you're not a gear head already I do not recommend it. So basically look at the CF contract, it can be found in MCO 1130.53, google it, download it and search for 2111 or one of the fields in 21XX to pull up the contract.

I don't want everyone here to know who I am considering I'm willing to speak my mind, not all of you like what I have to say and this website has a reputation for calling Marine's command over minor issues.

"Sarge"?!?!

Just about every Marine NCO I've ever known would consider the appelation "sarge" an insult, or at a minimum, disrepectful.

I think that there's plenty of room to update your profile without giving away your identity... I mean, other than being a 10 year corporal.

Choose your words carefully.
Your stay here may be short.

Nam didn't end until 75, far from peace time and what difference does that make anyway, a Marine is a Marine, Semper Fidelis.

Take this....elsewhere.

And I want to see an updated profile "Devil"...otherwise your time here will be....shorter.

Also, 'sarge'? Come on. That calls into question for me if you are even a Marine, or just someone trying to cause hate/discontent.

Fix it. Take the rest of this to PM's.
