Thanks for the post, very useful information. I just got to Ft. Sill and don't think my class is picking up for a while. A little nervous though, the class seems pretty hard but I should be alrite. It looks as though you are serious about your MOS. The poolees and wannabees, among others, should heed what you say.
Now, a little background please. Profile up. It is very rare for a new Marine to get to Ft. A little advice, after your done with your working parties, go to the gym and PT as much as you can on your free time. Don't bother trying to read any class materials to get ahead, as it will do more harm then good. When I signed my pre-ship paerwork last week, I signed up for my job being combat support nothing detailed about what I would do.

Just wondering if you've encountered any senior NCOs that have lat moved and what they are doing now as an Are they getting their hands dirty with the rest of them or are they sitting being a desk in the S-3 shop?
Thanks a lot. I'm going to level with you, because of the bonus we had, we have been flooded with NCO's, especially Sgt's and are in dire need of Pvt-Lcpl's. I have encountered several lat-movers, and at one point we had over 16 Sgt's in our shop alone, outnumbering E-4 and below by over 2 to 1.
All of the fun work as an Is from Pfc - Cpl. The more exciting work is E-4 and below. But the prospect of being out of the fight directly makes me reconsider staying in this particular MOS.
I hate deskwork and computers, but eventually your advancement in the Marine Corps will precipitate that kind of work in any MOS you take. Re: As an , he should be on a normal deployment schedule. He will probably do 6 months deployed to 12 months at home, somewhere around there. Well if we were employed how we should be, the job would have a significant higher risk than infantry. However, it seems many in the Marine Corps command have a certain level of retardation when it comes to employment of 's, so I'd say we assume th same amount of risk as a rifleman This is especially true of attaching to grunt companies, they lose alot of good support because they do not understand how to use us.
What unit is your husband going to? Originally Posted by ThreeEleven As an , he should be on a normal deployment schedule.
Latmovers To any Lat-movers considering coming over as an Our MOS is heavily bogged down, and our bonus has been greatily depleted. Look elsewhere. You have no high speed training or gear to look forward to. You will be approving or denying someone elses missions. The course includes written tests weekly and three graded live fire missions. If you flunk any of the tests or live fire missions, you're out of the program. Because this is a PMOS, it is limited to only enlisted Marines, chief warrant officers, limited duty officers and warrant officers.
These Marines are promoted to this position. Once they've passed their training, Marines in MOS are considered experts in all things fire support, and provide guidance in the field for infantry units. The pace can vary, but these Marines are usually on the front lines in combat situations, and their expertise is highly valued by unit commanders.
