This is not the first time Marines have had the task to rescue downed pilots or recover aircraft. The downed Blackhawk helicopters in Mogadishu (Some might be more familiar with the movie) those were recovered by Marines, basic 0311 Marines to be exact.

Air Force call this special ops. Marine Corps calls this... business as usual...

[@johnrodriguez7742]

That's because the Air Force Special Operations Command is a elite unit within a conventional Air Force, while The United States Marine Corps is an Elite Service, Special and Elite, Chosen and Unique, World Class and Badass Battlefield Shooters and Special Operations Capable Gyrenes.

[@divejumpshooter6947]

Terrifying? What does that word mean? Unless that is code word for breaking shit and killing people, you better lose that word before you get to bootcamp. That sounds like a word a ballerina uses before opening night.

Safire says CV-22 Osprey super cool, super versatile and dynamic platform. Can he used to freight material/weaponry as well as move personnel.

[@Dallas702]

Is this a specific MOS? How can I be put onto a path to become this Marine?

[@stuartdoyle4373]

It's not a specific MOS. They're 0311 infantrymen. If you wanted to do specifically this, you'd have to be an infantryman and get assigned by pure luck to a company performing the role.

[@sfjarhead4062]

Start as a Bn Recon Marine, talk to a recruiter.

[@KWhiteServantOfYHVH]

It's a secondary role of mortarmen which is 0341 (these 0341s, 0351s, 0331s and 0311s just so happen to be in a line company called Fox Co.) on a MEU, their weapons company is most likely tasked to another part of the SP-MAGTF, currently so the MEU commander picked the most capable line company with EOTG qualifications. To get qualified you have to go to Special Operations Training Group which is now called Expeditionary Operations Training Group. Another way is by joining MARSOC which will send you to most of the EOTG courses by default. If you dont want to be MARSOC you have to be infantry and your unit has to A) be rotational deployment to qualify for MEU status and then your company has to be hand-picked by the MEU commander.

[@KWhiteServantOfYHVH]

@@stuartdoyle4373 No only some of them are 0311, what are you some kind of POG?

[@Rick-jt7nf]

K White actually they are all infantry except for attachments like radio operators and the Doc. I did 2 deployments leading a TRAP platoon. We were all 0341s from the Weapons Company of 2/4. I suppose each infantry battalion could set it up however the commander wished.

Taxpayers’ money footing the bill to rescue pilots flying machines that bomb their targets, but that also likely incur “collateral damage”, all in the name of winning conflicts that were likely not even necessary in the first place.
