0311 Reservist not in a Infantry Unit?

[Lamm]

Can an 0311 Marine Reservist, or 03 Marine Reservist, be in a Reserve unit that is not a Infantry unit? I have heard that this is possible. But, it seems kind of a no no to me. Anyone got any info on this?
Thanks for any and all help.

Thats a question for your recruiter.

Right, I'll give him a call. Also, I can call 1-800-MARINES too, right?
Thanks,
Lamm

1-800-MARINES works too ...i really dont think its possible b/c you wont be able to train in your MOS w/ that reserve unit. but just like 03 said its a question for your recruiter.

Last I knew was that it was possible, depends upon what units are in your area. There is a kid I know that is an 11 that has to drive 2 hours for his weekend. it all depends upon what is in your area.
