The Marine reserve rifle companies I'm looking to join are set to deploy mid 2018. My recruiter said he would try to nail down an 0311 contract for the company closest to me but warned that between boot and soi it'd take 6 months to get to the unit after my ship out date so there's a chance I could miss this one.
I know in the Marine Reserve infantry companies usually deploy every 6-7 years so I want to do what I can to hop on this one. But what happens if I get to the unit and they've already deployed? Are new joins flown overseas to meet up with the unit (especially if the unit is only about a month or two in to deployment)? Or would a new join be transferred to show up to drill every month with a different company to learn what they can for when their original unit returns?
