Some say all males go HM-8404 for C school or that the program has been integrated into A school. Some say FMF is a rare billet to get these days, some say its all they have.
Any current HM mind setting this right once and for all? It seems a lot has changed in the past few years.
I am a future HM in DEP, BUT I talked with a friend of mine that is currently a HM and he tells me that attending FMTB and obtaining 8404 is mandatory to stay in the rate. With that said I am not sure if actually getting an FMF billet is easy or not. I too would like some more clarification on this if anyone has some insight
