That is a great idea, not many applicants show up quoting the regs! good luck at MEPS!

Sequestration should have no effect whatsoever on it. When did you have PRK? You can reference AR 40-501 to see what the minimum wait time is after having the surgery, and if you have past that time, then MEPS should have no reason to make a big deal about it, beyond requiring you to have the med. d...

If you have a signed 368, you should have no issues going active duty as a 35P

Honestly dude, your medical skills might not even be on par with most 11B TL's and SL's in battalion, as most get sent to be NREMT-I, do rotations in an ambulance and in the ER, etc. as well as having combat trauma experience. I have heard more than one Ranger Medic say that the average 11B in batta...

Yes.

I think track is a great sport for training for the 75th, as well as cross country. In fact, I joined cross country my senior year of high school to prepare, as I knew I wasn't a good distance runner. You want to know how you achieve balance? let track/xc be your run work out, and then supplement th...

the comments section is ridiculous...

Was Stew Smith a Ranger?

This guy is a fucking tird for doing this interview and portraying the military the way he did, I don't give a fuck what he did before. When I first read this, I thought, no way this is the actual guy, this guy sounds way too unprofessional and is probably posing to some esquire writer who doesn't k...

It just came down on high that no one except actual Marine Poolee's are allowed to attend their PT sessions, due to an applicant having a stroke during one of their PT sessions. So I would be surprised if that invitation is still open to you.

It's a good MOS in the 75th. You did well in reserving that.

Nope, it's just that so few cooks make it through RASP that they have to get a bunch of them to try out just to get a few that make it all the way through. You see the same thing with MOS's like 92Y, 92A, etc

You can get an opt. 40 at 17 - if they are available.

Go to college while you are in so that you don't have to get out with out a degree.

It is very common to take college classes while in Batt. these days.

Personally, I feel that my time in Batt. has given me more tools for success than anything I have done in college.

I actually see Opt. 40's come with signal MOS's far more than I do them coming with infantry MOS's. And 150 opt. 40's a month for 11x is a thing of the past. I haven't seen that many for a LONG time.
