"I joined the Marine Corps in August 2009, graduated boot camp in November 2010, and arrived aboard Camp Pendleton March 11, 2011. I have enjoyed every day of my enlistment and am sad to leave, but it is my time to leave. Potential Marines should be ready for lost sleep, physical training, and know how to make the best of every situation!"

"I have been working for the United States Marine Corps, TSO since 2015. I have progressed from being a contractor to a full-time civilian. The environment is usually a laid-back one. We sadly work with old technologies and the organization hates remote work options. They go out of their way to prevent that."
