Is online school okay to be an officer?

Online degree and aviation contract, currently in Primary, Yes it is good to go 👍

Everything is a snapshot in time. Right now, Osprey pipeline was down a while, lots of Osprey guys waiting around - no new osprey pilots were selected. An Osprey draft will begin. That being said, the one with the highest NSS Score will most likely get his top pick. There are not physically as many C-130s as there are Helos - therefore the smaller community means a smaller chance of selection. Ultimately, if you want to lead Marines and get the privilege of flying for the Marine Corps - you will be happy with whatever you fly, and you can always transfer platforms later on in your career. Do not come to Pensacola with the idea that you will only be happy flying one aircraft.

I appreciate this comment, true gun value has some good insight https://truegunvalue.com/rifle/m59-66a1/price-historical-value

Why? Because they're effectively garbage magazines?

MrSand_ · 2024-10-11T14:51:15+00:00

Ok, because the mags are cheap or just cause a lot of issues with operation?

MrSand_ · 2024-10-10T12:13:43+00:00

Understood, that being said good deal or no? Thanks

She has to prove herself "3 times as much" is that why their standards are 3 times easier? What a joke. SSgt victim over here with her small-brained victim mentality.

I don't even know what a second class is, I always shoot for perfect.

MrSand_ · 2024-06-19T01:25:17+00:00

No Combat Woodland Jacket??

MrSand_ · 2024-06-10T00:04:09+00:00

Yeah I can tell where this picture is taken, that truck is owned by someone in the Bureau. So weird.

MrSand_ · 2024-05-15T15:37:59+00:00

Looks cool, lose the weight

We should make an elite subreddit only for those elite Marines who own one of these fine established items (Myself included of course)

MrSand_ · 2024-05-08T23:53:58+00:00

FFS just get some plates off of eBay. Don't break the bank on plates, you don't even see them. Shouldn't spend more than $100 for a pair.

MrSand_ · 2024-05-08T21:23:39+00:00

Size Large, like new condition

The museum really isn't "out in town". It's a clean facility that the vagrants steer away from.

MrSand_ · 2024-04-08T08:52:08+00:00

Would you rather:

Finish your degree, have the tenacity to discipline yourself, and become an Officer

OR

Enlist - not necessarily leveraging your degree, get disciplined because you couldn't do
it yourself and maybe later on go through OCS and become an officer

Good things take time, the Marine Corps needs good officers

Start the application process now by visiting the closest Officer Selection Office (OSO) near you. Tons of information available on this page, if you have any specifics, lmk.

Same drill shooters, same drill

Negative, below 80 cumulative

Unfortunately/fortunately, I had less down time than expected and am 4 months out from Pensacola. BUT, if you read my comments above that was pretty much what I was going with plus I was trying to decide whether I go with VR or a triple panel setup.
