Basic Training

First of all, what are my chances of joining the marines with a GED?

Second of all, how is marine combat support different than army combat support? Seems to me like you'de be doing the exact same thing.

If I go to enemy territory to fix things, will I see more combat than army combat support? The reason I want marine combat support instead of army is beceause I've heard marines get more action than army regaurdless of MOS.

Will they let me do hand to hand combat training as combat support? I really want a black belt.

Is it true the marines are the best of the best?

yes...but you will need a waiver and will have to see a Recruiter to get the straight answer

support is support...pretty much the same in both services

Im assuming you mean like a mechanic or something.....if so ...more than likely you will be at one of the support bases.....and the things that need to be repaired will be brought to you

As for getting more action......Both get plenty...but you wont see it on the level you are expecting...


Will they let me do hand to hand combat training as combat support? I really want a black belt.

yes...In the Corps it is called MCMAP training and all Marines are trained in it

Is it true the marines are the best of the best?

If you have to ask......
