text: help, i can't trust my recruiter? i'm going to army soon, and i can't trust my recruiter on some things because even though he did not lie about major things, he was kinda half-true and half-false, like gauranteeing something that could not be gauranteed.  so what i want to ask you guys is about my job at army.  i wanted to have mike 6, which gives you health care training and sends you to nursing school. the minimum service for that is 5 years. my recruiter told me i would get the job i want gauranteed, but there was no opening so i had to take a different job.  my current reservation is 68 whiskey. i would receive health care training (no nursing school) and then i would go to airborne school. and my recruiter told me that if i am in top 10% of my class during health care training, they would offer me to go to nursing school before airborne training.  but if i choose to go to nursing school, wouldn't that mean that i would have to serve more since my training is taking longer than it was planned? alright, this sounds like simple miscommunication. first, there is no mos "mike 6" - that is an asi designator to the 91w mos (which is converting to the 68w mos). the concept here is that you enlist with the 68w mos (which is the army's equivalent to first responder - in fact the ait is recognized by the dot for such purposes), then after some service time but before you reach e-5 (p) rank (that's sergeant promotable), you go to the m6 school (m6 is an "additional school identifier or asi) which trains and then licenses you as a licensed practicing nurse (lpn). there is no way to get the m6 asi without first attending ait and being qualified as a 68w, then reporting to your unit. if it is not in your enlistment contract, then the m6 school is not guaranteed. instead you will have to apply through your chain of command for it. if it is in your contract than you are set. it doesn't sound like he/she is lying to you but it certainly sounds like there is some miscommunication going on. for further info - i have linked the 91w/68w mos web site and the m6 asi websites below. if you are really concerned, do just like you would with a doctor - get a second opinion from a different recruiter in a different city. sounds like everything is good to go - just confirm that your m6 asi school is guaranteed in your enlistment contract.
