Hi,
Has anyone heard about the Marine Corps GMO tours?
I'm leaning towards doing some kind of surg residency with the Navy, probably uro, ent, or gen surg. Not completely sure yet, but to some extent happy that I'll be given more time to figure it out by doing a Navy residency rather than having to decide as a 4th year.
I am just curious since I'll likely be doing a GMO tour what people thought about the hardship tours with the Marines. For me, I thought that I could deal with one year out there and thus increase my active duty, non residency/training period only 1-2 years (1 GMO year + 4-5 year commitment after residency for a 4 year scholarship commitment).
Any thoughts? Maybe Iwakuni might be able to shed some light on life for the Okinawa Marine GMO's while he was out in there doing FS.
