Things that need to be known:
1. The Marine Corps has the second largest Air force
2. The Marine Corps has the MOST tactical aircraft
3. We are the ONLY branch that offers *GUARANTEED* Pilot contracts!! (this
means you know for a fact you will be a pilot, not a mechanic, or avionics technician, before you sign anything).
4. 1/3 of all of our officers are aviators.
Guaranteed Aviation: Marine Corps aviators fly everything from jets to
helicopters. Qualified applicants, male and female, are GUARANTEED aviation
training, before enrolling. Once commissioned, you will receive flight training
at Pensacola, Florida, with the world's most modern and sophisticated aircraft.
No Obligation: This is an officer training program. If, after the summer
training (paid ~$2700 for 6 weeks), you decide the Marine Corps is not for you,
cancel your enrollment... you will not be obligated to service. This program is
designed for college students and recent graduates, and allows you the
flexibility to change your career path!
AGAIN, This is Not ROTC!: All training is conducted during the summer.
No classes, no uniforms, no impact on your time during the school year. For
freshmen and sophomores, your training consists of (2) 6-week sessions (one
session per summer), both at Quantico, Virginia. For Juniors and Seniors with
only one summer before graduation, it is (1) 10-week session. You are paid
while you are at training (paid as pay grade E-5 which is $1700.10 per month),
plus receive medical, dental, and military benefits.
MISCELLANEOUS POINTS:
* All aircraft are tactical (meaning you are not simply flying a bus from point A to
point B for your career). Real flying, conducting reconnaissance missions,
electronic warfare, air-to-air combat, air support for Marines on the ground,
and providing aerial escort to protect our foot mobile warriors
* As a pilot in the Marine Corps you receive "flight pay", an additional monthly
stipend for pilots, right now in the vicinity of $900/mo in addition to your regular
pay.
* Not only will you be one of the most sought after professional pilots
throughout the world, but you will be proven a solid leader holding the title of
MARINE OFFICER!!!
IF flying is a dream of yours... Come serve something greater
than yourself!!! Serve a higher purpose!
