HM - Which NEC do you want?

Dive tech or 8404. Something more out there than the regular hospital and medical jobs. Maybe even SARC if given the chance.

I've been eyeing SARC too, you have any details on how you go about joining. Is it while you are in A-School. 8427 or 8404

Not necessarily an indicator of anything, but all the SARC candidates I saw going through NACCS were HM2 or higher... all but one was former FMF and had bigger ribbon racks than many instructors.

The SARC my husband and I are friends with went straight to training out of Corps School. That was years ago though and he was an EMT in the civilian world so I don't know if that had any significance.

From what I read an E-1 can go through NACCS. I'm sure the HM2s and higher had a better advantage though when it came to the schooling aspect of it.
