Hi all,
I was talking to my guidance counselor today, and she supplied me with some info about USMMA that I'm sure everyone here already knows but that I have a question or two about.
First off, I understand that USMMA is meant to train the Merchant Marine, so would it be wrong to apply here if i have my heart set on the Army or Coast Guard?
Secondly, say for example that I chose to commission active-duty Army after graduating KP. When my 8 years is up, would I still be licensed to work in the civilian Merchant Marine? Can somebody give me a little more info (or a link) on how exactly MM licenses work? I'm not sure I understand it exactly.
Thanks everyone
