Well today is the day. I went and talked with my recruiter Ssgt. Hunter and Ssgt. Murray and I'm squared away to go to MEPs today around 2p.m. I'll be staying over night to take the physical tomorrow and will be home later in the afternoon.
We basically sat down and filled out all of my paper work which took about 2 hours. After getting that done we scheduled my test and now we wait. Hopefully by tomorrow I will be officially enlisted into the United States Marine Corps.
I'll have more to updated you on when I get back from MEPs tomorrow afternoon.
EDIT:
Well I went to the recruiter's office today for our scheduled meeting to get everything going and found out that I'll have to wait till Wednesday to go take the ASVAB and MEPs. My diploma came from a homeschooling association and has given me quite a fit with trying to enlist. I came into contact with the xo that over see's all of Orlando's recruiting offices and explained to him my problem. The next day (saturday) i got a call from one of my recruiters, Ssgt. Hunters, saying that I'm good to go with the Dimplom. Well I went in today to enlist and we ran into the same problem again. we couldn't get a hold of the xo because he was at an xo conference so we have to postpone everything till wednesday. So it looks like I'll have to wait till then before I get the final word.
i'm so stressed out about this. i just wish they'ed accept it already. I mean techanically I'm smarter then your average public schooler only because I have had to go through more schooling then public schoolers. On top of that I have a years worth of college under my belt, so I'm lost as to how they think I'm not qualified.
But, we'll see come wednesday. _________________________________________________________________
