Unless this has changed, ALL HM's are now required to go FMF (providing they meet the physical/medical requirements). So, to those who are about to go to FMTB or joining to be a HM, good luck in Field Medical Training Battalion! It's hell but it's fun!

From what I have been told by the recruiters in my area that only females are NOT going to FMTB, that all males will...it is overmaned so that is the only option for males at this time.

So has anyone gained any sort of new information this rating? Between what retired Sailors and Marines have said, my recruiter and Navy Liaison Yeomen at MEPs, and the Navy Corpsman Facebook page, and a couple of other active duty Sailors, the information is contradicting. 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. |
