Depends on your rotation and the needs of the Navy. I had friends that were assigned immediately to deployable battalions. I got to sit in Great Lakes for a year and a half and then got sent to Grenada. My buddy Vaughn got sent about a month or so earlier to Beirut. They sent him home in a box.

You have been trained for FMF duty, obviously that’s where you’re needed. Consider your next duty station somewhere in another country, attached with a Marine Corps battalion, regiment, brigade, or division !
