So I have contacted a CG recruiter, but haven't heard back yet, so I thought I'd see if anyone here could provide me some info about the reserves. I am currently a civilian 911 paramedic, I have always wanted to join the military, but as I get older and am now married, am looking for something a little closer to home. Does anyone know what the opportunities in the USCG, outside of rescue swimming are like for a paramedic?
