MARSOC has a million dollar advertising campaign and dozens of recruiters. Recon doesn't have any of that. All we have is a standard that 70% of Marines fail to meet and that challenge seems to attract the right people to our doorstep. Your career planner will know what paperwork needs to be submitted. You can also contact the I&I at whatever recon unit you want to associate with. I know most of them and can put you in touch with someone if want. Try the website first though.
Talked to my career planner and he's gonna find out what paperwork I need and what needs to be done. While I wanted to wait to pick up Corporal, I'll be fine trying for it as a Lance. Roughly how long do you think this process would take? Because it's possible I'll pick up within a year. I'm close.
