"yeah thank you for that paracav. and as for USMC having a scout/sniper program they do, because my friend was one, but i am not sure how to get into it. i'll ask for you though."
Well, allow me to pipe in.. You cannot, will not, no matter what, get into a scout/sniper billet as a boot. You go infantry, get some experience as a grunt, and TRY OUT for that kind of duty when you are ready and meet the qualifications. Even if you are experienced and meet the basic quals, there is zero guarantee that you'll be chosen. You can't get it in an enlistment contract, etc.
Gents, life is not a video game. I understand and appreciate the curiosity about special operations training and duty, but it's tiring to constantly read "I plan on going recon" or "I'm gonna be a sniper"... Join, do your best, and take things one step at a time. If you pack the
gear to do the high speed stuff, you'll have your chance to prove it. In the meantime, think before you post.
