Marine reserve re-enlist as Marine active?

[Beastmode1607]

I am joining the Marine reserves for the first six years. I was wondering if I can go active-duty after my six-year contract is up for the reserves? I heard it was next to impossible to transfer to active-duty, however I do not know if it is possible to transfer after your reserve contract is up. Any military/veterans help clear me up on this? Thank you.

Best advice I can give is to send josephd a pm, he is a reservist with a lot of experience, helps out people in this section very often. Send him a message, he'll help you out here.
