Re: Army 19K M1 Tanker

dont know much about 19 kilo. but once you're in, you can always reclass to MP later on.

I was told more than 5 is a no go for MP. It's 3-5 for a "security clearence" job. But Infantry is damn near same as MP, only MP writes ticketsand does cop work lol

Re: Army 19K M1 Tanker

hey bro, im a 19D, a scout. I dunno if uve signed ur papers yet, but a word to the wise- Unless we are lookin to go to war with a world superpower, we arent using tanks at all. Im deployed in iraq and i havent seen or heard of a tank being here in a year or so. I mean scout is a def good idea, its a great and diverse job. And for ur security clearence issue, the tickets will dissapear if they are traffic related, so u can get ur security clearence later on in ur contract. PM me if u wanna hear anymore

Not a recruiter, just on the inside lookin out.

your wrong there bro. infantry and mp's are two totally different animals. been infantry for 15 yrs now. my advice to you is go into a job that is going to make you happy because if you dont your not going to enjoy life. if you do go 19d cav scout make sure you get airborne in your contract. its the only way to go.


pm me if you have any ?

Good luck man, not a bad choice. at least u didnt pick some bitch **** like "supply" or "cook". have fun out there in the "School of Hard Knox" and get ready for the rivalry (19D), lol.
