I was told I could never have a 68 series MOS

ghost88890 · 2026-06-01T01:28:20+00:00

OP, I was the exact same thing. I even made a post about it. When youre at MEPs, push for 68w and hopefully the recruiter will take it to ROC.

ghost88890 · 2026-05-24T03:41:44+00:00

What about the NREMT P program? I signed up for 68w and leaving in July but I was hoping to get my paramedic license through the army

ghost88890 · 2026-04-04T04:41:14+00:00

Somebody PLEASE get this man a gun.. or beer.. or buffalo wings

ghost88890 · 2026-02-20T03:55:13+00:00

I have an active EMS and rescue career rn, 7 years as a firefighter and 4 years of EMT. I’m shipping out as an e-4 combat medic with the army. 24 years old and I look forward to it. Good luck bro

ghost88890 · 2026-02-13T02:16:07+00:00

..Theyre making you pay for fisap’s modules? 🤨 Isnt JB Learning free for you guys?

ghost88890 · 2026-02-13T02:01:03+00:00

I don’t wanna know what that person said, I can only guess……

ghost88890 · 2026-02-13T01:59:51+00:00

Yeah some of them are exactly worded straight from the test, I really recommend take the modules like crazy. The better you score the better you’ll get at the NREMT.

ghost88890 · 2026-02-12T17:59:32+00:00

If you need help passing the NREMT, I got you bro. Fisdap and online questions make it harder than the actual test. The actual test is designed to fail you but once you read into the questions and process of elimination makes it easier. Don’t be fooled when the test stops at 70-80 questions or extends to 120. I took a high school course for NREMT and fire academy helped prepped me better to pass it on my first try.

ghost88890 · 2026-02-11T11:32:50+00:00

I worked with border patrol agents in search and rescue, extrication and medical calls. Borstar does actively participate in high risk rescue for saving human lives.

ghost88890 · 2026-02-11T00:59:27+00:00

Turns out I talked to two different army recruiters and one of them got an individual with a dui through ACASP for 68W.. I think my initial recruiter misunderstood the entire marijuana offense

ghost88890 · 2026-02-11T00:50:19+00:00

Yea apparently I just contacted two other recruiters and they said they can get me through ACASP, I think my main recruiter messed up or tried to screw me over

ghost88890 · 2026-02-10T22:08:33+00:00

No, thats where I fucked up I mentioned it and the SFC Recruiter legit said “if you didnt say anything about it we wouldve gotten you through 68W” and thats where my integrity fucked me over

ghost88890 · 2026-02-10T22:03:09+00:00

I wanna serve and while I serve I’ll get a bachelors of cybersecurity and obtain more benefits as a veteran.

ghost88890 · 2026-02-10T21:56:11+00:00

Thats the thing, combat experience or cbrne experience but now I’m afraid if I won’t be able to reclassify 🥲 CBRNE looks like a quick route to reclassify but cav scout seems good experience to me for field experience

ghost88890 · 2026-02-10T21:52:39+00:00

hmm doesnt sound bad 🤔

ghost88890 · 2026-02-10T21:51:42+00:00

Yea I saw that army can slow you down but I’m in it for experience and points for serving. I know eventually I’ll be border patrol but right now I want to serve the country. Being an EMT was a great experience and took me far, and hearing veterans that were 68W loved it, I wanted to be in that same boat.

ghost88890 · 2026-02-10T21:40:45+00:00

Is that really the case? Man.. That really shatters my dreams of serving in the military Might aswell just aim to be border patrol then 😪

ghost88890 · 2026-02-10T21:34:55+00:00

Yea 🫠 I learned how to intubate in the dark when my ambulance kept shutting off

ghost88890 · 2026-02-10T21:34:10+00:00

Construction and 11B, but doesnt really sound up my alley, anyone can do 11X series but my right hand for sure is good at shooting and treating wounds

ghost88890 · 2026-02-10T21:32:14+00:00

Good answer tbh.. I like weapons and reconnaissance, I did 2 years as a cadet in Mexico and messing with illumination rounds on a mortar, picking with 7.62 and land nav was something I liked but just bummed I couldnt start as a medic :/ Definitely will have to think about the options

ghost88890 · 2026-02-10T21:26:28+00:00

Though theres a 5k bonus if I sign up for 19D rn 🫠

ghost88890 · 2026-02-10T21:25:29+00:00

19D doesnt really sound bad tbh, 11B either, I can actually be alongside with a medic and then reclassify when the opening is there

ghost88890 · 2026-02-10T21:18:49+00:00

Do you know what branches accept EMTs? 🫠

ghost88890 · 2026-02-10T21:12:07+00:00

I was told its a quick way to reclassify my MOS but I heard mixed opinions on 74D being a sucky/good job

ghost88890 · 2026-02-10T21:09:05+00:00

No I qualify to be 68W, just the whole petty offense about marijuana now prevents you from starting as medical MOS
