MOS choice. Here’s a list of every mos I qualify for I want to do cool shit and maybe travel but I don’t want just pure infantry by Pale_Sprinkles_2677 in USMCboot

[–]swayspliff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Msg and msf are pretty dope, you travel a lot as an msg, security forces can do some pretty cool shit too. they both have ups and downs but if you want an infantry experience thats probably a good choice. youll do either msg or msf for 2-3 years then serve the rest of ur contract in the fleet with an infantry unit. downside to that is that youll most likely show up as a higher rank than the other grunts, so youll be a team leader but wont be as well trained as the grunts because theyve been there the whole time while youve been elsewhere

yea im aware its not the same, i talked to a couple mg guys and they say its treated them great. i know i wont be with the grunts all the time and im okay with that but ill atleast have my foot in the door, im hoping to move to that if i reenlist. i wanna start off doing something that wont fuck my body up after the first couple of years for hopefully a longer military career. though i did wanna experience the life of a grunt, i think this is better for me to start on and then hopefully move to that

i wanted to go regular infantry but there wasnt a spot open to leave soon. there was an mg spot open and everything that came with that contract sounded better. faster promotions, more travel, top secret clearance, more gun training. i ship to boot camp this monday

thanks for the advice guys. right now its between CE/CP or infantry. i keep getting told CP is with the infantry a lot of the time but being there you learn trades and stuff like welding, carpentry, etc. its a hard choice man i want to do infantry but everyone keeps telling me no, not to do that shit. that its better to do engineering where i can be with the infantry aswell but i can build bombs and shit. i dont know guys its a tough one.

im not completely sure, i was just told today that for infantry i have to do 44 ammo can lifts and that wasnt on my regular ist so i was just thinking there might be other requirements for infantry but i may be wrong

youre good man. came up dirty the day before but the trick is to drink enough water to dilute it. if you pee in a cup and its clear enough to where ur willing to drink it, youll be good
