i'm not impressed anyone can be a jar head, met many of them at the filling station on Miramar. dumb as rocks. . I did the ASVAB test, was about to join the Air force. But the recruiter was lying to me. I told him either I work with planes on the air force or I was outta there. he said, I had to start low, maybe in the kitchen or that maybe I should join the marines or the army, or even NAVY. I told him no. I wanted air force. I was the best, did great on all the testing. He couldn't guarantee anything so I walked. I was glad.
Another job that I had was Karaoke assistant. Lol. Loved this. My GF at the time was a karaoke host, and I'd her her with equipment and with duos. epic side job.
I call BS. I'm a Vet and have close friends that are Marines. If you were offered a low or entry position it was because of your test scores. You can ask all you want but if your scores are low then they will offer you an alternate trade or sometimes nothing at all. Usually top scores are offered Officer Training, pilot, communications, electronics, electronic system analysis, weapons systems technician, medic, etc. I don't know you personally but based on your past posts I seriously doubt you would have had the capability to pass the USMC basic training or the mental discipline to handle what theses brave men and women deal with on a daily basis while deployed around the world everyday.
