| So since im color blind I cannot get a combat arms job. So yesterday at MEPS, the offered me 68W, Combat Medic. I am signed up and ship out Aug 3rd. HOOAH!!!!!! |
I have a feeling it will be easy to spot lots of the "imposters" for the next couple of years who claim to be medics, as many won't be familiar with the change. "I'm now in training to be a 91W". No you aren't!  Of course, this may also confuse some who are already in and have been in before as well. And since most imposters claim to be SEALs, Rangers, Green Berets or Space Shuttle Door Gunners anyway, probably makes this irrevelant. |
It often galls REMF Marines when I remind them that sometimes the bravest one on the battlefield is a Hospitalman sailor. 95% of the doorkickers and shooters unabashedly agree with me. Good Luck! |
| Thank you guys, I dont not have my first station assingment yet. I am talking with my recruter to find a way to get me airborne, if that happens Ill almost definatly end up attached to infantry. They tell me its easy to get attached to infantry and hard to get the hospital jobs that everyone else wants. So that works for me. Just cant wait to ship. Hooah!! |
