firehawkordy 34 Posted July 23, 2008 Well my son the Marine picks up Cpl next month and decided to ship over for another four years. probably a good choice considering the uncertainty in the civilian job market and having a baby on the way. I don't have the heart to tell him this is how you begin that dark journey to becoming a lifer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MAKO69 186 Posted July 23, 2008 He will have vet status that will help w/ State Police, Dept. of Corrections, Sheriff Offices, City and County Fire Dept. when he decides to get out. tell him to take all the test when he's a short timer, most states allow you to take them 1 year out from ETS. He could walk into a state trooper job 70K+ a year In Mass if you arn't making 100K your first year you are lazy.
