Post by PerryB »

Howdy, I checked the request system and right now we have Option 40 shipping for recsta 20 and 27 Jan 2014 for the following MOSs : 92G, 11X, 92W, 88M, 94E, and 91C
For high school seniors the options were a little more limited I see some 11X option 40 shipping for recsta 28 Jul 14.
Good luck and if you have any recruiting questions please let me know.

Good info! BTW, have you heard anything about reducing accessions because of this budget problem?

PerryB, I will never be able to put in words what you just did for me!
I had coincidentally just gotten home from taking the asvab and meps pysical and also the airborne physical.
The first thing I felt i needed to do was get on this forum and see status of option 40's as of recently.
You just helped give this young man possibly the greatest opportunity i will ever get, Thanks to you my recruiter just locked in a 11x option 40 for the next available meps.
Again thank you!!!!!! What you do here can never be appreciated enough!

Jim I haven't heard anything about the mission getting reduced. No one in recruiting services was furloughed so it is business as usual. I do wonder what will happen if they actually implement the SMA's tattoo policy. That policy could have a huge impact on enlistments.

Micheal glad I was able to help. Now follow the advice you get from these Rangers and Never Quit. Oh and go ahead and knock out 50 for me. I wasn't a Ranger but I was a SFC so push private.

Thank you Sergeant PerryB for the heads up. I am going to try and see if I can go to MEPS on Saturday or the next possible date. Hopefully I can get signed up for the July 28, 14 ship date.
