A guy I knew from High school just recently got back from MCRD. I remember him being a total douche, one of those know-it-all pussy crybabies. I saw him around town a while back, while he was on his 10 days leave, and said hello, tired to be nice and all.
I asked him what his MOS was, and where he was going to school after MCT and whatnot, and he told me that since he got the highest marksmanship award in his platoon, he got extra training and they went ahead and made him a scout sniper. It was hard for me to keep a straight face during this entire conversation, because he was in his alphas at the time, and he was a pizza-box marksman.
I just didnt say anything.
When I saw the local recruiter a couple of days later, he told me that he was an 01something (personnel and admin).
