Yeah, the fact that every Marine is a rifleman is a big part of what got me interested in the Corps as opposed to the Army, though I do not look down on the Army like some clowns do. I got a friend who's doing something like electronics repair, going to Iraq in a couple of months, but he's gonna be doing combat patrols like a regular grunt. I just meant I'm signing up to do full time infantry as my MOS, not any technical jobs like repair. But good luck in Iraq and come home safe. And thank you for you service to our country.

yeah...

They say in the Army that you can be converted to an 11 bang bang in a hurry. Being a 13F, I practically was anyway, because I was always with an infantry platoon....
