Can you choose whether you do PRP or FAST, or is it just assigned?

Will do. Thank you, Sir.

Gotcha. However, my record is completely spotless, I have NO idea why I wouldn't be eligible. Also, you said I spelled Marine Corps incorrectly in my thread title, but I didn't. It automatically put...

Still trying to decide. I go in June, I get to leave sooner and hit the fleet right away, but I quit my job before the seasons over, I spend my birthday in Boot Camp, and I miss out on the SF...
