The top Marine recruiter in the country

USMC Staff Sgt. Franky Rodriguez, of Perth Amboy, is in charge of the Marine recruiting office in East Brunswick. In 2008 he was named the Marine's top recruiter in the nation. We caught up with him recently too see what his day was like. (Video by John Munson, Story by Matt Mabe)

[@patriot7260]

+XxMetalGorxX What if they're saying things I don't understand? I'm 18, I want to join and fight for The Constitution and our inalienable rights and such. What I'm afraid of is that I go and hear something that scares me like military jargon I don't understand, and it makes me look stupid, and lowers my chance of getting into the Marines.

[@XxMetalGorxX]

+Dave Strider (Future) Then you bring your parents along, talk to other marines or bring a lawyer to look over the contract if you proceeded that far. Reach out to people who can and want to help you. You are making the decision, so be mature about it. The only thing that will lower your chances is your health and test scores. Dont let them fuck you.

[@slowsupra9257]

Dave Strider Talk to active marines that ARE NOT RECRUITERS OR ASSOCIATED WITH THEM. They'll give you a run down of what to expect. You can also PM me if you want I'm active duty and work with marines (I am not one though)

[@OhDefined]

If you have any questions please shoot me an email at [e-mail]. My name is Cpl. Frost of the United States Marine Corps. The initial decision of enlisting is the scariest part, but you have to know what you want to do. Many things you don't have to be afraid of. All of these men and dickheads saying you're gonna be brainwashed and it'll make you or break you is bull. They're trying to scare you into a certain mindset. Block it all out. Bring a buddy when you see the recruiter or even a parent. Heck I'd even take notes. Anyways shoot me an email if I haven't answered any further questions or if you have more questions. I'm on my email almost all the time. Thankyou.

Same thing for me. My friend was leaving out to Boot Camp on April 3. On Sunday I told him I'd like to join. He gave the recruiter my number and the recruiter called me that same day. The next day I drove an hour to go meet him and I took an ASVAB practice test in the office and got 43. Then he called up his what he called "boss" and he talked to me. Long story short. Tuesday I get a free ride to meps and a free stay in a nice ass hotel and then I'll be a poolee

[@mrmoist2814]

As an Airman I LOVE the marine corps. They always treat us with respect and are very down to earth great guys. When I had a chaplain appointment in tech school at fort lee (an army base). I asked a marine warrant officer for directions. He made phone calls and went out of his way to make sure I got to the appointment that i very much needed to attend. Other branches talk shit on each other, thats okay, I have just as much respect for the marine corps as anyone else. Regardless if you are an Airman like me, a marine, sailor soldier or coast guardsman, you are a brother or sister🇺🇸

[@MsFabDee]

Wow, how wonderful. imo Marines are some of the best, most squared away guys you will ever meet!

[@carolynlucca]

In all fairness, you need to admire his tenacity. That MOS sucks. Female marine here. Don't ever just talk to someone off the street like this. Do your own homework-lots of it-and go in prepared. Research every branch and ask yourself if you want to even join. Then go in with a parent and talk and talk. Nobody ever lied to me bur there was a lot of bending of the truth and things that they neglected to mention that you might not catch if you just walk in off the street.

[@ProjecthuntanFish]

I joined the Marines because I wanted to fight and they kept their promise to me.

[@Horrorhousereddit]

People who say "Recruiters don't give a shit about you only the monthly quota" are far from wrong. I'm a POOLE, and never once has there been any sign what so ever that they don't give a shit, completely the opposite. We've had days at the recruiting office where they'll invite you to hangout, text from to time time to hangout outside the office, hell if they know something's wrong they do the best they can to help out even with school work. Recruiters are by far some of the nicest guys you can meet and are only there because they want you to succeed. (We also have guests who come in regularly and who aren't interested in joining that are always welcome and are always treated the same with full respect.)

[@dustylefou]

I was a recruiter, and yes, we only cared about our quotas because most of us would rather be back in the fleet doing our real jobs instead of having our careers depend on the whims of 17 year olds. People don't sign up for the Marines to be recruiters. Of course we are nice to you - we want you to like us so you'll sign up and our bosses will stop yelling at us or making us walk around WalMart at midnight to find new applicants. lol

[@terenceperson1204]

cause they don't obviously they only care about the quota they deadass get forced to become recruiters because noone wants to become one. then they get scolded and if they dont reacht heir quota they could get denied a promotion for a job they didnt even want.

I came from a long line of Marines so I had heard every horror story from Boot Camp to the Fleet to EAS. I remember just sitting there as the Recruiter laid down all that bullshit...."yea man, you put the Blues on and panty's get wet for miles"...was about the only true thing he said. I went in a guaranteed 0311. My only fear was being made a Pog and never hearing the end of it from my relatives (all 03's and nobody ever rose above Corporal since the war of 1812....though some were promoted to Corporal more than once). Not much shit you can talk about an 0311 MOS. The entire Marine Corps is built around it. I couldn't do Recruiter Duty. It's basic aggressive sales. I could never work in Sales.

The military does help with schooling most people that I see complaining can't do the schooling because of their jobs in the military. So they say oh he lied to me said I could go to school and I couldn't ... Or when they say they want to travel.. But can't exactly travel how they want to.. The smart thing to do is to research on your on and then go talk. That way you can have some knowledge of stuff and find people who just recent joined and finished their basic training your recruiter might not even know what basic is like or any questions you have for it but yeah I'm off my soapbox

how do I contact this recruiter?

[@andyh5102]

this video is 7 years old. he's no longer a recruiter

[@brandondavis7525]

+Der Sammler damn ok

[@andyh5102]

Brandon Davis yeah, sorry man. A recruiter's tour lasts 3 years. This Marine is either back in the fleet or he's out of the Corps

[@brandondavis7525]

+Der Sammler damn he seems like a good recruiter every other recruiter i meet is an asshole haha

[@BBallBoy506]

Thats just how some are sadly. Mine is a great guy and took care of me and still looks out for me and helps me whenever i need anything in the fleet. im going back on recruiters assistance here in a few weeks for the 3rd time. my best advice is go talk to the recruiter he may come off as an ass but if its going to get you to where you want which is in the military or even the marines like i am itll be worth it. Opens alot of doors and gets you where you need to be as a young adult in life.

They manipulate the shit out of you lol

[@daggern00b]

+RSlordRS Our recruiters at my RSS are pretty honest. They never promised a rose garden and told us there would be days, weeks and even months where shit might suck but the same thing can happen in college or a career field.

[@HEIGHTSIXFIVE]

Holy crap! This guy is good!

[@rubenhernandez8439]

I went into a recruiting office, straight up there was a big meeting and the top guy just started talking shit about my weight. I havent been back since lol

[@VeeZee777]

swear to God if I'm walking down the street and a marine recruiter asks me to join I'mma be like "That a no from me devil dog. hooah!" (I'm Army btw)

[@mrtn775]

where is the Iraq campaign ribbon at?

[@srt.v8096]

Martin Rodriguez my thoughts exactly

[@AK47HEAVYMETAL83]

You can wear either the GWOT Expeditionary Medal or the Iraq Campaign medal. Can’t wear both.

[@OlafoWaffle]

Depends on the campaign, you can wear both depending on when you were their.

[@andresmdc78]

Samoan Dude you can wear the GWOT with either of those. You don't even need to deploy to be awarded a gwot(service ribbon)

[@CorruptCatalystVids1]

I barely went to go talk to a recruiter because he came to my school and that uniform stood out above all others i have seen i am interested in joining

[@Tangsters]

Respect!

[@spacechimp3199]

Slippery boi

[@leronbenari226]

Can you imagine how much he lies.

[@ImTylerTheCat]

[@firerescue2283]
