A brief overview documentary of the modern day training that takes place at Marine Corps Communications-Electronics School, Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center, Twentynine Palms, CA. Marine Corps Communications-Electronics School trains Marines in ground electronics maintenance, tactical communications, and air control/anti-air warfare operations and maintenance in order to ensure commanders at all levels within the Marine Corps have the ability to exercise command and control throughout the operational environment. (U.S. Marine Corps video by Cpl. Manuel A. Serrano)
Just graduated from 5979 schoolhouse at mcces after spending almost a year in 29 i can say it wasn’t that bad compared to how most of y’all seasoned retired marines had it back in the day. I’m excited to hit the fleet and make y’all gents proud! Rah.
I got my electronics career started there in MCCES Company A 2841 Ground Radio in1982. Now I'm making 6 figure salary working in engineering company and just about to retire with 7 figure nest egg. I'm deeply indebted to USMC for the life long ethics and philosophy that carried me to where I am now. Semper Fi.
My story parallels yours but I got my 2841 in 1965. After the Corps I used the G.I. Bill to get my EE. I retired on 5 country acres and am doing pretty well. When you retire, watch out for that nest egg because it has a way of shrinking fast.
Great video. I cannot believe how much MCCES has expanded to meet the new requirements of electronic warfare. I served as CO of Student Company A and then CO of Communications School 1975 to 1979. Bill Parker LtCol USMC (Ret)
Anybody remember a 2531? That's just a simple field radio operator. I was at the stump way back in 80s and 29 palms was not much more than sand and dirt lot. Look how far the Marine Corps has come!
I was a 2531 back in 1984. Not at all like modern communication.
I was in building 1642...

Yep MOS 2531 Radio PRC-77.
Hey Marine, I’m leaving for Parris Island June 7th and I got the same MOS although now it’s 0621, thank you for your service teufel
I was a 2542 Comm Center Operator (or as we were often referred to: Comm Center Pukes). This was late 80's. I trained in 29 Palms in early 1986, then stationed at Camp Lejeune (actually Camp Geiger with 8th and 6th Marines) until the end of enlistment 1989. We were still using teletype equipment from what seemed like WW2.
I graduated from Electronics School in 1965 when it was located at the Marine Corps Recruit Depot in San Diego. My MOS was 2841. That MOS kept me out of Vietnam because it cost the Corps $325,000 in today's money to put me through school. As an old Master Sargeant said to me, "With what the Corps spent training you to repair receivers, ain't no way we're sending you to Nam." With that training, after my 4 year enlistment was over I used the G.I. Bill to go to college to get my EE. After 35 years in the Aerospace Telemetry field I retired on 5 country acres near Louisville, Kentucky. The Corps was good to me.
I was communication in the us Marines and I loved it hoorah
hoorah?
@randy Massengill did you deploy?
where did they deploy after done with that?
I just got picked up in BMAT today, in a couple of days I’ll find out my mos and move over to TMAT, then wait to pick up class
Oh ya? 0645 stage tomorrow dont be late
Nice job brother I'm standing behind you 100%
Man, things change. I was FRO... now it's TSO? Still 0621, either way... Oorah.
They were combining radio and SATCOM together when I lat moved to comms.

What jobs could comm transfer to in civilian life ??
There is a civilian equivalent for just about everything comms. Airports are obviously where a lot of the aviation related jobs are. You'll have little trouble finding work with a data center if you were to take something more networking related. I don't know personally where to look for employers, however based on my buddy who has worked on some big bank data centers, it's pretty dang good pay.
*NONE*
Thanks for sharing
What's the likely hood of seeing combat in any of these? And which one of this will have the highest likely hood for it?
Most of these MOS’s are not meant to be on the front lines, but LAAD does deal with shooting down aircraft with stinger missiles. If you are looking to be tip of the spear you would have better luck going infantry or some other combat arms MOS. Hope this helps
Most of em practically sit on their ass
0621 Transmission systems operator ( field radio operator) is probably your best bet in the comms field
Pretty rare. But during Desert Storm we had a couple techs up with some platoon that was taking fire and so forth. After we got back stateside and started playing games again, getting back into PT and humps, we also had uniform and wall locker inspections. The two guys that were up in Iraq were sporting Combat Action Ribbons, along with the slew of other ribbons that 9th Comm Bn rated.
What about 0600
Thanks for video .
Which is the easiest schoolhouse wise
@Marco Rogan probably the repairing the phone schoolhouse, if you can already jail Break your own phone how hard can it be😂

I went through BEC from January to April 1990. Rocked out during Math Week only because I wasn't sure of an answer so I moved on and my "fill in the bubble" was off by 1. Retook and got 100% that time. By the time I got to Digital Logic I realized 2841 was not for me, which is what pretty much everybody got shuffled off to after BEC. There was an opening for 2813, Cable Splicer, and the training was at Shepard AFB. What the heck, I said I'd take it and of course caught sh1t from everybody because I was going to an Air Force Base. All I can say is being 18/19 year old guy on an AFB with fresh outta Basic Training lady Airmen...man, that was a great 4 months!!
Never got to do my MOS though, it was mostly civilian contractors doing it at Camp Pendleton Base Telephone so I got stuck with being with a Construction Platoon laying cable and setting up phone lines and networks. Not really what I was trained to do, but improvise, adapt, and overcome I suppose.
