Marine Reserve EOD Contact

[JrodBones]

I am trying to find a point of contact for Marine Corps Reserve EOD. From my understanding there is not a reserve EOD unit and EOD Marines simply get attached to units that rate EOD. I know it's an MOS that has to be LAT moved into so just trying to see how I may be able to get some accurate info on this.

And before it's mentioned, I did talk to my career planner and his exact words were, "I'm outta here in 6 weeks so I don't really care about anything else. Maybe the new guy will be all moto."

If I should post this in Marine SOF thread please advise.

Thanks

Gotta love the career jammer.

Hope you can get some answers.

You could try another career planner. Guys in my unit frequented the regiment and division career planners because our battalion career planner was similar to yours.

There are two kinds of people in this world, facilitators and obstructionists. You've already found an obstructionist. :wall: You might have to transfer to a reserve unit that has an open EOD billet. I think the training for 2336s is done at Eglin. Good luck.

NAVSCOLEOD left Indian Head twenty years ago, at least. Except for any service specific Phase I type course, it's all done at Eglin.

I wish I had some good current information to share, but I went through the course almost nine years ago, and I know nothing of Marine recruiting for the MOS. All the same, @JrodBones , I wish you all the best at getting in and passing.
