My very First Marine Corps Duty Station

[McAllister]

Well, I just graduated with a meritorious mast from Delta Co., School Of Infantry. I just arrived at my first duty station; 1/6.  They put me in a weapons company which I thought was odd because I'm a Rifleman. Later I found out that it's because myself and 9 others are going to a CAAT. (combined anti-armor team), which is cool.  Later, I found out something else: 2 of us are going to STA platoon (surveilance/target-acquisition {scout sniper}) I hope I'm one of em'.  I'll keep y'all posted, eh. (see that last sentence? north meets south)

Good luck McAllister, I'm sure your family is both proud and at the same time wondering where they went wrong. 8)

Seriously the Marines have great training, great people and you get paid to do it. To have just an opportunity for Scout Sniper School - priceless.

Well, good news. They put me in the scout/sniper platoon. Its awesome. That last remains of the 'old' corps. Marines know what that entails. They're gonna train me as a scout and spotter and after the Fallujah deployment's done in a year or so I got to the famous 13-week scout sniper course and be a full blown scout/sniper (M.O.S. changes from 0311 to 8541).

Got my work cut out for me. I'm pretty boot and they put me here right out of the School of Infantry based on my good PFT, GT, and rifle scores. I'm gonna get 'broke off'.  Good. Bout' time, I say.
