After creepin for some time, I require the use of the storied "search" function.

I served in the Marines from the summer of '05 til the summer of '13. I was a field MP, not one of the blue falcon PMO MPs that work on the bases giving out tickets and bitching about your lifted truck being too high. The field side of the mos usually does convoy security, but as of late (due to the drawdown) we have been tasked with advisor missions. My last pump was on an advisor team and I loved it. It was awesome training our guys, and although they may not have been up to American Military standards, they were at least "Afgan good". It was pretty cool teaching our guys from the bottom up. Anyways, I got out about a year and a half ago and started school right away. I have an affinity for math and mechanics so I decided to try my hand at mechanical engineering. If you were to go back in time to the high school version of me and tell me that I'd be going for any sort of engineering degree I'd tell you to kick rocks. In high school I just wanted to graduate and start my career in the Marines. After my first 4 I decided to re-up and see if the political bs and dick measuring subsided at all after a couple promotions. To no avail, there was still alot of insecure arrogance. So I decided to get out and start school. My plans as of now are getting the degree and hopefully getting into the xray program. I loved serving, I would rather do it with professionals. Any questions you may have, feel free to ask. I look forward to learning alot from everyone here.
