Marines,
Thanks for taking the time out of your day to look at this and possibly answer my question. I graduate from high school in three weeks and I intend to enlist in the Marine Corps once I get back to the States (living overseas due to my dad's job) this summer. Because I'm not in the US currently I don't really have access to a recruiter (haven't had the chance to become a POOLEE, etc.). My plan is basically to go to the local recruiting station back home but I wanna get everything done as quickly as possible so that I don't have to drag the process out, which will be painful on the family. So I am wondering if anyone can let me know how much time will pass from the moment I first walk into the recruiter's office until I get into boot camp? Is less than a week possible? Can I go straight from the recruiter's office to MEPS to boot?
Again, thanks for your time and thanks for your service
