Hi all,
I have been posting in other area of this forum with regards to my DS who is currently in AROTC and doing well.
Now I learn that DD#2 (older sister #2) is becoming interested in military nursing. she has a BS in public health and is currently working on a 2nd degree, a BSN (she will be done in about a year) and is considering using her nursing in a military service. (I think the US Public Health Service is on the list, too.)
I had said that neither the CG or Marines had medical people, that they relied on other services for that. She has contacted officer recruiters in the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines. Today I learned that she has an appointment to meet the Marine recruiter tomorrow. She said she was clear about wanting to be a nurse. What gives? do the Marines have nurses or is the recruiter simply recruiting for the Navy?
And while I'm asking questions, I gather the OCS programs are specialized for Medical people, but I'm not sure how all that works. Any insight would be welcome.
