Wow! Thank you all who replied to my original post. Overwhelming! Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed information from your life experinces. I appreciated everyone's replies - just had a busy weekend and got too far behind to reply to everyone.
A few clarifications here. My son is not enlisting in the Marines to become a diesel mechanic... he is enlisting because he really WANTS to be a part of the US Marine Corps. The diesel mechanic part of it is simply because he does have to select an MOS (and he expects to undertake additional schooling for it).
Son is a good student - usually on the honor roll (he scored 80 on his ASVABS). [A friend of son's was here last night - who is also enlisted - this young man mentioned that he had scored 45 on ASVABS... recruiters said he had to retake the test and the young man got a 46 the second time around...so feel really good that our boy did real well.]
A few thanks that pop to mind right now... Old Tanker, thanks for summarizing all the replies.
Guido - thanks for again for serving (did not know that one could ever have been drafted without being a cititzen - interesting fact).
Tom in TN and many others whom I may have missed... THANK YOU ALSO for serving and for your replies.
