Question

have a degree in accunting,do you think the USN or the USMC with take me with a degree in accounting.?

ok,a lil about me i m 27 just got my degree in accounting.

I have worked as a correction officer for 5 years, now i m going to be a Parole officer.

but I want to go into the reserve just to give back to the US.

I m asking like 3 thing

1 will the USN r USMC take me

2 what will they have me doing ( I only want to be a officer)

3 what will I have to do and how hard will it be like ie boot camp?

Answer 1

You could def. be a supply officer in either the USMC or USN. I don't know if you get a guaranteed job. I think it depends on the the need of the service at the time and how you do at Ocs.

It will be like boot camp, only worse and longer. Talk to a Marine OSO or an officer recruiter for the U.S navy.

Answer 2

You need to research the military before you even decide anything..You seem to not have any basic idea of what you are getting yourself into..The military can have you deployed real quickly as a reservist and you dont strike me as someone who is ready to deploy for many months on in.

The USMC is not for everyone so be very careful if you decide to become a USMC officer..The other branches seem better suited for your needs.

Answer 3

USMC will take you with a high school diploma . as for officer . to be a officer first you need to be in good shape i mean

able to do the following

run 3 miles under 18 mins=100

100 crunches in under 2 mins=100

20 dead hang pullups=100

300=perfect score

officer need to score a minimum of 275 if you can do this your in good shape .

after this you will be sent to OCS (Officer Cadate School) where you will be trainied to be a marine officer . also everyone who joins marine go threw basic training . after you graduate its not what they will have you doing its what you want to do . you  chose a job MOS you think your skills will fit in best and help marines best. ill provide a lik where you can see all MOS rember when you talk to your recruiter to ask about the mso and make sure a spot is avaliable . hope this helps

Answer 4

either one should take you if you qualify. it depends on several things, you're asvab score, your physical readiness and criminal records are a few. as long as you're physically qualified you should be fine. if you have a degree your test scores are probably good and if you want to be a parole officer then you're most likely fine there too. any degree you have will help as well. you'll automatically come in as a higher paygrade, probably E-3 instead of having to work up to it. just contact a recruiter in your area for details.
