jrh replied to John Smith's discussion Join the Military"Fernando,
The Corps has too broad a variety of job fields to even list. Google Marine Corps MOS and you should find a listing of all the jobs and descriptions of the requirements. That going to be a big part of what "can you…"

jrh replied to John Smith's discussion Join the Military"What jobs are you thinking about?
I know a lot of people that go to the military after the work force, (especially in the post 9/11 fervor) so its definitely something that can be accomplished. Just think through all the…"
Shane replied to John Smith's discussion Join the Military"We don't have Corpsman, Chaplains, or Nuclear Technicians. For that you'd have to go Navy. But, we do have a Space Cadre. Which the Navy doesn't. So, that's pretty cool.
Now go watch Full Metal…"
Fernando NM replied to John Smith's discussion Join the Military"I want to join the USMC as soon as I can, I've talked to a couple Marines and they always ask me: what do you want to do?

So to the Jarheads out there: What kinds of jobs…"

My time in the military (I was a Navy Corpsman with a Marine Corps Bn) taught me to grow up and be respectful and I did feel that I learned quite a bit more and…"
Lyle McDonald replied to John Smith's discussion Join the Military"I'm down on 2-1, 16 Co. Glad to see some mids on here! Stick around 2/C LeDoux as much as you can; he's a good guy and one of my best friends."
Ben Copenhaver replied to John Smith's discussion Join the Military"I'm "living the dream" as a Plebe at USNA. If your GPA is as good as you say it is, and you've taken challenging classes, as well as have some participation in sports and/or other examples of leadership, you would probably…"

Adam Estrella said… - I've been a Navy Hospital Corpsman for 5 years with the USMC. I deployed with an infantry battalion to Iraq in '05 and am still serving with Marines. I would have to tell you if you're considering joining the military that you will enjoy some of the greatest times of your life. Not everyday is a walk in the park, but I never regret enlisting.

Uncle Sam posted a discussion20 years old and enlisting tomorrow. Tips and thoughts?
I've been thinking about it since a freshman in high school and I am finally making the decision. I've talked to the recruiter a bunch of times and he was helpful in answering my questions about the process and logistics. I am enlisting in the USMC. If anyone has tips, thoughts, stories of how you made it through boot camp, etc, it would be very helpful. See More
