I enlisted yesterday but don't go for boot camp until Sept. 13th. I'm 100% convinced that they get you up so early and rush you through MEPS so that you have no idea what you are signing up for when it's all said and done. I have an open contract and they say I can still pick my MOS (from what I was able to read on the papers that they didn't want me reading though it looks like there's a good chance I'll get 0300, which I don't mind)... but, thinking in the long term here if I decided not to reenlist after 4 years and they really do let me pick my job, I'm wondering if Data/Communications would be a good field for the job world after the Marines. Do you think "28 - Data/Communications Maintenance" would ever get to see much combat?
I'm still open to all suggestions on jobs that would get to see plenty of combat but still give you great experience for a career if you ever get out of the Marines.
