Greetings.
I'm new in the forum, so I apologize if I mess up somehow.
I've got my contract for Avionics technician. But I'm not sure if I want to be tied to a contract for five years.
I want to be a Marine, that's a sure thing. But honestly I plan on going to college and get a job spend time with my future wife and family.. etc... more like a civilian.
I want the skills this MOS offers, I always messed with electrical equipment, so I was really excited when my recruiter told me the good news,
Also I wanna ask you the following questions.
1. Should I definitely follow this MOS?
I'd greatly appreciate this answer from an AET Marine.
2. I would like to ask for alternative MOS as a reservist that help for a civilian life. (mechanics, Technician, etc...
3. If I graduate boot camp as a reserve, and then I decided to switch to active duty again would I lost the opportunity to get this MOS again?
I Know some of you Marines Would say: 'Focus on graduating first.'
But, I'm motivated to be a marine, so there is no need for that advice. I've been wanting this, now it's just the commitment for 5 years, or get married and do other things.
Thank you for reading me.
Hopefully y'all can share some knowledge with this poolee.
