      iMetalguitarist is this really the best job in marines? If I don’t qualify for Air Force might do the marines. This is a safe job too right? No combat?

      Hey, you commented this 5 years ago but I wanted to ask for advice. I'm in the process of enlisting. Im currently 18 and I ship to boot bootcamp in a few months but I've been thinking about switching my mos to this. My original one was 3432, finance technician but this seems alot better. Any requirements?

    Hm. My main goal is to become a pilot for the Marine Corps so that I can fly for a major airline when I get out. I am thinking about doing enlisted, using my GI Bill to get my 4 year degree, and then complete OCS, and become a pilot for USMC. Does this sound like it could work?

      Ur better off doing ROTC in college... Or through the military academies. and getting a pilot slot after you comission. Or you can start from the bottom enlisted.

      I am 20, don't worry as long as you can keep up physically and under 40 your just fine. In fact if you prove you are mature along with your age you can make NCO within a year. My Aunt was 35 when she joined military and is currently in Germany.
