As the father of a marine sgt who is a 0621 it is an important field for the corps. this the guy who calls in air strikes, and tank support when the grunts need support. to me this is the most important guy in a platoon. I am a retired RM2(SW). I was a navy radioman for 21 years. so my son gets it from out family. his grandfather was a navy radioman in WWII he served with the marines at gualdacanal. so this means it is in his blood. you can advance 1uick in the corps so my son says he made sgt in 5.5 years. went in as a PFC. So he has done well.
Ok so i just signed my job and i leave 20090309, or 2 weeks and 6 days for bootcamp. I signed for the electronics/data option, and there are several mos's including field radioman, and electrician. I want 0621 field radioman. I didnt just want to sign for an infantry unit, i wanted to be more useful. How would i get the mos 0621, and if i do get this mos how would i get into MARSOC, or an infantry unit?
