SMCR to MARSOC

[kscore]

I am currently trying to get my package put together for submission but am having trouble finding a few things, since links appear to be broken/dead on every website I have searched (marsoc/marines/marforres). My friend from my unit who is currently in ITC hasn't been able to email me what he has as of yet.

If anybody can PM me a sanitized copies they may have or happens to have links to the following I would greatly appreciate it:

First Endorsement Checklist- Unable to find on MARFORRES search or Checklist Tab

CSO Checklist- Currently have 8 Nov 11 and there is currently no career planner at company level

Medical- All current forms

AA Form- Currently have Rev 3-93

RQS- Currently have 1-06

If anybody would be willing to peer review my RQS I would greatly appreciate it. Always good to have a second set of eyes.

Next question-

I have submitted this question via email to a recruiter but no response as of yet. Per MARDMIN 042/12 MARSOC has opened up CSO to SMCR. I am curious if it is open for SOCS as well and how it would work being out of billet? My primary MOS is 0311, but given my current civilian skills and previous schooling through the Marines I am wondering if there is a route to K9 handling in MARSOC from the Reserve side? If there isn't I'm still planning to pursue the CSO route but I love dogs, especially working dogs.

That is all I have at the moment. Thanks and S/F

This thread was just updated. Does it have any of the information you are looking for? The link in the second post has a lot of info under the "Recruiting" tab.

Until then, check around a little bit more (not necessarily here, but it's amazing what kind of forms you can find through Google, at least on the Army side. Not sure about the Navy/Marines).

There are a few other people on the site that should be able to help you a little more in your search for answers. Good luck! How long have you been waiting on different people? Have you tried driving up North to see if someone up at 4th Force could help you out with some of the info you are looking for? They aren't too far from you.

Lima,
I have refered to that post and site for answers on docs. Hopefully broken links get fixed soon but no sense in waiting on other people. I have been able to find most documents but am definitely wanting to make sure they are the most updated versions. Thanks for the reference.

As far as waiting on anybody it hasn't been long since I was gone for Annual Training for 2 weeks and have only been back for a week. Getting my civilian life back in order took up most of my time during business hours. I haven't driven up to 4th Force as of now due to COC concerns within my PLT. Trying to move a self driven package without negatively skylining myself within my current unit is a bit of an issue. I'm still buzzing in every ear I can at the moment.

Thanks for the reply!

I understand how those two lives can impact each other. Good luck and keep at it. Hopefully something comes up for you here or through other channels in the next day or two.

Kscore,

I only have the cover sheet, RQS and AA form handy. Give me a minute to scrub them(I'll leave the RQS filled out, or I can peer review yours), PM me your email, and I will send them out. I may be able to see the career planner Friday and have him FWD the rest to you, if you haven't come across them by then.

Lt,
Definitely and thanks again.

HC,
PM sent your way. Thanks.

I was given a recruiters direct email and sent my email out from my home computer instead of work because I am not confident my work email is properly up, so still no updates on that end.

Thanks again HC for the forms you had.

Anybody who is willing to review my RQS I'd greatly appreciate it. PM me and I'll send it out ASAP.
