Making the Corps a Career

[The_4th_Stooge]

I want to make the Marine Corps a career and maybe become an officer. What things will I need to do so I can make that happen? I heard you have to work in the recruiting office or do Drill Instructing...correct me if I'm wrong...I'm just curious because since I can remember, I've always wanted to be in the military and lead a life in the military. My biggest pet peeve is people who disrespect others and since respect is huge part in the Marines, I want to be a part of the Corps always. I'd rather live in the mountains the rest of my life than work in a civilian office with people who act like the kids that go to my school. Any pointers you can give will be greatly appriciated! Thanks.
