Hi all,
I'm a prior service Marine who's been out of the game for a few years now and recently decided to pursue an 18X contract. During my time in the USMC I completed Airborne, but that was way back in 2011. I've locked down the 18X contract and I know that Airborne is a part of that pipeline. Does anyone on here know whether or not I'll have to redo Airborne? My initial guess is that I won't, but my recruiter/career counselor at MEPS don't seem to have a solid answer for me (surprise there). I'm going to be married shortly before I leave for OSUT, I've been out for over 3 years so they're making me attend, and I'm just trying to figure out a rough estimate for the amount of time I'll be over in NC before I'm able to pick up in an A&S class. I know that Airborne is only a 3 week course but considering OSUT is now 22 weeks, which kind of blows my mind, I'm trying to figure out the additional time in training I'll have after that. Appreciate any feedback
