A stutterer planning to join in the USMC Hello community, I am a 18M and while my call with a Marine Corp recruiter was long (He was patient, God bless him) I fit basic requirements for the branch but my stutter needs to be lowered to a moderate to small level. I want tips and tricks or advice about how I can improve my fluency so I may be applicable after my graduation or a few months after it. I also want to know if there’s anyone here who served in the military as a stutterer, it would be reassuring to know.
