Thanks for this advice Trell. I contacted a recruiter the Tuesday before last, we ran through the medical questions, I said no to every single one. Told him from the beginning that I wanted MP & Corrections, or Motor T, asked him many questions too. Went to MEPS this Monday, MEPS was a breeze, told the doctor no to everything, he found nothing of concern through Genesis. Ended up getting Sworn into the delayed entry program by the end of the day. My current ship off day is in March, but I'll probably move it to January, and the word is I've been approved for Motor T. Thanks again for the advice Trell, you have helped me so much with all your videos, and I am very excited to ship off.

Man is so spot on. Waivers aside the recruiters have quotas to hit; don’t make their life and your life harder. Just be smart about it or don’t show up to the recruiting station at all

Good advice because I’m planning on joining the Marines 💪🏾💯🗣

That one dislike on the video is the one who brought up asthma and drug use to the recruiter and was disqualified 😂

Good to see you Trell,you give great advice.

Always a good day when you upload man

I joined some time ago. Things are different now. I joined and worked with my recruiter; 9 or 10 people joined after high school. This was good for them, me, and The Corps. There is wisdom here, to a point. In life and joining any branch of the military, you look into it, see what is available, what you can do to better yourself before "game time..", then get the best thing you can for yourself. You will have to work for this in the Corps and in life, don't think you won't; you will fail thinking that you can slide through the Corps and or life. In my case, my recruiter set me up with a 3-year contract for dispersing. I decided at MEPS I did not really want to sit behind a desk. I want to really do Marine stuff. My ASVAB scores were pretty good. When I went to MEPS, I changed my contract to 4 years open contract. This was a gamble, no question; I was willing to take it though. In boot camp, when we were told our mos. I got telecommunications maintenance. This required almost a year of 3 different service schools. Promotions in the field was really good. My first duty station was with the 7th Marines. I loved being with the grunts. Being a division Marine then stationed with an FSSG unit was a huge change. I should have adapted to FSSG while there, so my time there was not as hard as it was. I really disliked the huge politics of the unit. It didn't help that I looked extremely young and was promoted into the SNCO ranks after several really good fitness reports while stationed with the 7th Marines. The Corps, like most things in life, is what you make it; you always have to do your part and be smart about what you do. Good luck to all who serve. Have goals, know what you are working toward, and want out of the Corps or other branch and in life as well. If your goal is just a paycheck....... well.

Helping the new generation of boots I am out the corps in the year 😂 idk why I watched, but good video bro! #civdiv

🔥Heat video

Definitely need to tell the recruiter if you have a “metal plate” in your knee. If you don’t, MEPS will DEFINITELY find out because there WILL be a scar and they will DEFINITELY see it and ask about it. Just like ACL/MCL surgeries. So basically if you have a surgery that leaves a scar, your recruiter needs to know. Guaranteed you won’t get through MEPS, and your recruiter will be pissed.

Honestly most recruiters dont give a fck they'll do whatever to get you in

When choosing when you go consider the environment. Ex. If you hate the cold don't chose boot camp in the winter. Same for the heat and humidity of summer. There will be more than enough man-made stress. Us the few choices you have to make things as less stressful as you can.

I have one kidney. I aint telling them shit. lol

Told the Navy Recruiter that I had smoked weed and bro still tried to get me to go to MEPS the next day XD

So I’ve been arrested for possession of marijuana, but it was removed from my record after doing an MMDP course and paying a fine. One source said I’ll need a waiver for this because it’s technically on my criminal record, but my army recruiter said it wouldn’t matter. Any thoughts?

also, come december 1st meps will have access to med records

Does MEPS check my medical records? I had a previous knee surgery around 2 years ago, I heard it helps mentioning it to the recruiter so you can get medical waiver approval, I’ve heard a lot of different things from different people, kinda confused on what I should do lol

Tell the truth about that 3 mile pft I’m concerned😂

Hey Trell i know you were a 0331 but could you fill me in on what Logistics is? I chose logistics and im about to sign my contract on it

This video was uploaded right after I got home from the recruiters office

Only watching this because I had a recruiter email me earlier that comes to my school

Hey Trell. I had a few small surgeries on my knee. A army recruiter told me to get a waiver bc when the drs at meps look I’ll get disqualified and a Marine Recruiter said not to get a waiver that I’ll be fine and a waiver would disqualify me. What do you think? My scars are visible too

Bro they metal detectors at MEPS and ur telling us not to let recruiter know bout metal transplant

Don’t get stuck with an infantry contract for 6 years

If I have a chronic condition that I’ve healed from and is on my my medical records is that something I can lie about or do I need to tell the recruiter?

Hey got any tips to pass the asvab

*Shipping next month. Ba contract*

Do you know how long the process is into you go to boot camp and what are the jobs

Just got out of bootcamp. Golf Company

So can I ask my recruiter when I would wanna leave as of right now I’m getting all the paperwork done and just studying I scored pretty low first time would it be cool if I told her to give me more time to score higher.

45 days, not a couple of weeks for smoking pot.

Bro i have a 3 inch scar on my left knee from a surgery but my knee is perfectly fine. Can i lie? I think I can’t because the doctors at MEPS will probably see it because I’m going to be on my Boxer’s

I'd be enlisting in the Marines if neck tats were able to be waivered. Enlisting with the Army is a fucking headache.

Second

Mine ask me if I ever had std.I said only 1 time .HE sent me to the Philippines

What happens if u fail the drug test?

If y’all get fox company tell my Old Di’s I said what’s good

Do tree nut allergies disqualify you?

how have you been able to grow a beard?

Just curious, maybe you already answered this, in goin to bootcamp on Monday and I hate shaving... So for this reason my question is, why are you allowed to have a full beard??

Hey man. I had a shoulder surgery ik i cant lie about that because i have scars that are noticeable. Would i still be able to join the marines?

"Have you killed people before?"

my wife went on her journey to boot camp since yesterday, and im on the wait for the army ehhe

If a Poolee tells the recruiter they don’t care what job they want, the recruiter WILL NOT randomly assign a Poolee a random job. That Poolee will go to bootcamp Open Contract and the Marine Corps will assign a job based on the needs of the Marine Corps.

3rd

You are wrong not everyone smoked weed

First

So…lie?

No shave chit must be nice

Recruiters mission first,they don’t care what you say they still gonna get you in 😂
