I love challenges so I joined, The Marine Corps. In the Marines Rank is Earned and not given. Challenge yourself.

Infantry isn't everything. Marines or Soldier your purpose is to be a Rifleman!
Pick a MOS you are going to Enjoy.
Good Luck.

Rank in the Army is earned, not given. You rank up faster because we have about a 800,000 more personnel than in the Marine Corp and therefore, more opportunities to be promoted.

Some people love the life of a Marine and some don't, same in the Army. The FACT is, I get more Marines coming into my office on a daily basis, wanting to switch over to us, than does a Marine recruiter EVER see a guy from the Army that wants to switch to the Marines.

^^^Those are the guys we donʻt want. The guys that say I want something easier but I still want to stay in the Military. Believe me itʻs gone through My head a couple times.
But I am going to stick it out.

I'd say stick it out in the Marines, no point in throwing away all the time and energy you've already invested in the Corps.
