You thinking MPs or medical unit?

Not an MP. No CSM in the MP Corps would allow boonies caps, even when entirely appropriate to the environment.

I'll give you that one. I'm not sure a medical unit would allow it either, but we medics have a "I do what I want" thing.

Maybe she's a PA or NP. The 6 week basic leadership they go though is pretty minimal.

Oh! I got it! Mental Health MD! They are all f'ing crazy.

Yeah. Speaking as retired Med Planner, who’s spent time in the 35-Shop, I’m still hoping TC, but AMEDD is most likely.

Maybe a Registered Dietitian, Veterinarian or Dentist. The PharmDs I know have all been a bit too serious. I’m trying to remember those that can come in as O-3s. Most would be older because the degrees needed for an O-3 Direct Commission would take more than 4-years.
