As a Corpsman - that means he will be the most protected individual around a bunch of Marines.  :aok

Right on! +20

I live near Clarksville, TN home of Fort Campbell. I have several friends who started as your son (admitted in the Army) then went into advanced medicine. After some serious schooling they end up being a Physicians Assistant (PA), one step below a doctor making well over $100k/yr on the civilian side. Your son has a very bright future. He is on a great path.

Congratulations for your and your son.

As a corpsman(medic) ..when he gets out he can step right into any VA hospital that has an opening
..some will make a spot for him even.
They are golden.

If he decides to pursue that career he has a leg up on most ..Licensed Practical Nurse, RN, Certified Nurse Aneasthologist
..even Doctor are very much achievable goals.

Met a few here an there while I was workin as an LPN
..they all said it was a short step to become an LPN when they got out of the service,
.. every one I met was workin on their RN college courses and planning to go up the chain from there.

One of the nurses at the hospital On Eglin AFB was an ex PJ. Whenever I had to give blood I asked for him because well he never did miss... I guess doing it at night in a helicopter is good practice.  ;)

Best of luck to your son.

I work a part time detail at a major airport and run across a lot of youngsters oTW to Basic Training and Im consistantly impressed with the young people selected for military service. Maybe cause Im always around Mommas boys punk gangstas, but even if I wasnt I'd still be proud of the character of these young people that are beginning the greatest journey of their life.

My son is going to follow his old mans footsteps into USAF. I'll be proud too. Congrats on your son.
