Career Planning: Lessons Learned from Marines with a Break in Service,

Abstract

This analysis is based on questionnarie responses of young Marines who served one enlistment, left the Marine Corps, and then reenlisted. These Marines who experienced a break in service offer a timely and objective view of civilian life which can be useful in counseling Marines eligible for reenlistment for the first time. This report allows the career planner to present his client experienced-based data from junior Marines to complement other factual reenlistment information on benefits, options, and Marine Corps policy. The young Marine not inclined to accept reenlistment advice from a career Marine (career planner or commander) may accept the reported experience of his peer who recently tried civilian life and found the Marine Corps more desirable.
