I will say I was in Recon Batt and then 1st Force..Im kinda back n forth with joining socom but overall I think its a good move for the Corps. Better funding and they have to see how badass we actually are!
As a former Marine I can say the corps has never respected there 'special ops guys" now they finally enter socom and have the stupid name of marsoc very gerneric name. They should have come up with a name that instently tells the one hearing oh they are marine special ops. When you here marsoc marine you think ok what do they do peel potatios? Semper Fi and GOD Bless.
Your the man swede. Strativarious is the shit! I ship out on the 31st for the Marines. I got a contract to try the indoc for 0321 recon marine. Perhaps i will survive the cut.
Im 17 and im joining the marine core after highschool and i plan on having a military career by joining MARSOC. How may i accomplish this and who should i talk to about this?
I seriously want to join the marines but I am overweight I need help. Like I do not want to join the marines because I get a gun or kill people I hope it never comes to that ,but what I do pray for is the chance to serve my country and if need be destroy the enemy with the best training available.
@liltanman16 hey man, not all jobs are combat but remember every Marine is a rifleman first. If you go up to a Marine recruiter ask him about the DEP (Delayed Entry Program). They will work with you and you will for sure drop the weight if you follow what they tell ya.
@liltanman16 you dont need help. you need to do it yourself. your weight will always be there, ready to come back... so before you make a decision make sure your motivated enough to keep it off at least for those four years. trust me, nobody will hold your hand, except boot camp.
@MrBswood36 - Force Recon doesn't get lousier tech. Secondly, even if they did, it'd be because we can get the same shit done without whining and crying like the Army. (and don't even waste anyone's time disputing that FACT)
@headshotmeistro Doesn't matter they are basically the same thing, none of the people who are actually in special operations mess with eachother. Except rangers they are assigned heavy combat arenas where one special operations kill team (squad of men) couldn't handle by themselve.
@CreditDue52 I know it used to be two years... last I heard they wanted a first class PFT, Swim Qual 2, 45lbs load for 12 miles I believe.., and preferably NCO's w/ deployments underneath their belts.
Zebco96, I noticed the skull crushers also! darksamurai, if you are want more gadgets and more technology, go MARSOC. SOCOM is allotted tons of money. If you want to do the same work really just with lousier tech (not much), go Force Recon not Div.That's my opinion. And pwnage1731 who let you speak, especially about the Navy SEALs. they get way too much glory, all they do is strike and haul ass out of there!
@Zebco96 Good eye , maybe you can can get a job with the CIA as a photographic intelligence analyst , sorting through minute details that dont amount to a hill of beans or pulling the wings off flies. Do you really think these guys have time to worry about shit like helmet covers or saying better get the helmets right or people on you tube wont think it's us . Please!
hey swede i got a bit of a challenge im going in the marines and i wanna know should i go recon or marsoc all my friends are saying marsoc but i wanna be in recon any tips?
Let your parents know your in Gods hands, like I had to conclude with my son, 1st Recruit Training Battalion, Parris Island, Charlie Co. Platoon 1022, year 2010
you gotta get into recon 0321 first and put in the work. you have to be in recon for at least a year before you can go out for MARSOC. infantry is the best path. infantry is the Marine Corps, everyone else is grunt support.
2 things. whats the first song called? And im about to be joining as soon as im 18 (17 now) and i eventually i want to go MARSOC. Any advice on a good MOS to go into first to put me on the rite path? (would talk to my recruter about tit but hes almost never in the office when i can be there)
so many people saying things that they have no clue is correct or not. or maybe they like to think they are true. if your not a marine dont worry about it how about that one.
ok retards... MARSOC does not belong to the marine corps, although they are marines, for their little 5 year stint in MARSOC they are directly under USSOCOM. and yes, there still is a force recon, the are just under tier 3. the rangers and marsoc are tier 2, and delta force and seal team 6 are in tier 1. and they are all part of USSOCOM and frequently run joint ops together. so if you idiots read this again.... now you know.
@laldridge1 I need a MARSCO Marine to detail strip your report "MARCO does not belong to the Marine Coprs". As a retired Marine Grunt, I remember reading when the Marine Corps formed MARSOC. So how can you make such a report? However, your last comment let me know that you're not a Marine. For we don't call each other idiots sober.
Force Recon used to be the "semi-special forces". They conducted high risk operations at the light infantry level, but they were never given their separate logistical and intelligence support.
However, due to the War on Terror, Special Operations and CT units are in high demand. So the Force Recon has been scrapped and nearly all of its soldiers have been phased into the MARSOC.
MSOB DASR operators are the marines contributed to SOCOM command. Most came from 1st and 2nd Force Recon Companies. At the moment the first class just graduated from the training this year. Recon marines provide intelligence ops basically to the MEU levels. If you need any more clarification feel free to pm me.
Yes, MarSOC and part of Force Reconnaissance falls under SOCom,. However USMC also has what is called SOC(Special Operations Capable) which include the other elite marines, like Scout Sniper and Recon Division. The only SF(Special Forces) within the marines is MSOAG(Marine Special Operations Advisory Group) which is under MarSOC, the rest of MarSOC and Force Reconnaissance are SOF(Special Operations Forces).
What process do you have to go trough to become a Marine Recon? We got posters of that in my school. I am a Cadet Sargeant at the Marine Military Academy and i want to be an officer as pilot or as recon. But i dont know exactly how to get there. As far as i know you have to be a Sgt. and have completed at least 4 years of service. Am i right? Help plz? SEMPER FI!!! :D
Swede is right. It is about time that the Corps go its share of SOCOM missions. Several of its units are historically up to par with SOCOM standards, if not exceeding them, so its about time that they are recongized for that.
swede1775 i know u were a force recon before but what do u think about the new marsoc do u approve it or do u think it's wrong that marine corp shouldn't have join socom.
If there ever was a question as to who the best was, it was answered right here. I am proud to say that I trained with the best, and am extremely glad they are on our side.
May 11th Ship Date, this is what I want to do. I'm going in as a reservist 0311, then after the end of my sophmore year, transfering to active duty, going to SOI, then trying to get Recon. Semper Fi!

@darksamuari You have to go to SOI to try out for Recon. There's Recon Div and Force Recon. Don't know how you choose between them.
MARSOC requires you to have two years of service and be at least an E4. You can have any MOS, but I'm sure Infantry wouldn't hurt.
Be aware that it's tough for some to stay motivated as 0311s. It's rough on E3 and below, and physically demanding for all.
You can do anything you set your mind to. Take it step by step, push yourself hard, and stay moto. Semper Fi
