airfury17 0 #8 March 9, 2006 Wow....Thats good stuff right there. I just got my contract with the Marine Corps TODAY. I got into Officer Candidites School (OCS) to become an Office in the MARINES. I am very exited and you should be very proud of your son. Not only has he joined the Military a very noble choice. But he decided to become a Marine the best choice possible. What MOS is he looking to do? thats his job in the Marines. I am looking to do Force Recon, Infantry. then eventually become a HALO jumper. Well good luck and congrads! -jeff- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ccowden 0 #17 March 9, 2006 "Ranger Qualified" means simply having been through Ranger School and wearing the tab. Real Rangers are Battalion Rangers who have been through RIP, are stationed at a Ranger Battalion and wear the Ranger Scroll. You been through RIP?

ryno1972 0 #24 March 10, 2006 You have a lot to be proud of!! It takes a driven, couragous person to volunteer these days. Most kids (and parents) do not want to step up to the plate. Been in the Army for 14 years, it is always refreshing to see young people with drive and ambition.glad to be here!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
