started at E-5

Where they do that @?? The highest rank I have ever known coming out of boot camp is E-3, and you can get advanced to E-4 at your after A school or C school if you were top of your class and I served from 1999- 2008 active duty

you go in with a diploma out of high school or a degree?
High school diploma ... same as ged but still get E-2 if you enlist with a buddy...
a 2 year degree you go in as an E-5

4 year degree... you go in OTS...

unless I done missed something ... been like that since Regan?

 

[Sharkinva]

nah LOL shit was much more simple back then ... you could get in with a GED and start E-1 go in with a buddy and go auto E-2
2 year community college degree got you e-5 ..... ROTC does the same now days

ROTC in college gets you a lock for OCS now a days which is the deal i got for my son. He dos Boot and MOS school, then comes home to go to school, but has to do ROTC on top of a full time class load. And that still only got him E-3. Hell I need to go beat up his recruiter I think.

Will be my daughter's first year in this year... Freshman year of high school.

I didn't go through ROTC.... I enlisted when Bush Sr was president ... and lots of things change year by year ( I'm sure you know that)
even out of ROTC... they give you an option of 2 year program or 4 year (college) that much I do know

Sorry if I wasnt clear. ROTC in College gets you a lock for OCS. In High School, it just gets you targeted by the recruiters. LOL

Only rule I had for my boys was, if you go in, make sure its as an Officer, and no way no how as an inlisted Marine. Enlisted Marine= First to go, last to know.

It's really a matter of money ...
Military can pay for your school.... and then there is a bite

Or graduate ( 4 year degree) .. take a test and go straight to OTS.... ROTC isn't required....

everything is a money thing
