Hello. Does anyone know if the Navy is recruiting anyone but high school students. I have one son in the Navy and doing well on the Bush. I have another son that has been trying to get in the Navy but after 6 months we are wondering if they have quit recruiting any one but high school students.
We have call other recruiter's in our state and they say they are having the same issues that they have men in their early 20's unable to get in because no window has opened for them in the past 6 months.
Does anyone have any knowledge on Navy recruitment at this time. My main question is - is it useless to try to get in the Navy at this time?

...friend of mine as a son about 23 just just enlisted about 4 weeks ago and leaves for Great Lakes in Feb.
Is he trying to get a particular job? Maybe he's trying for a rate that's over full.
I think there is a measure of luck, but also is very dependent on your recruiter trying hard enough....
you are right, he is a new recruiter and not trying very hard.

Joe does need a waiver for depression. Has letter already from doctor that he is normal.. Depression was when he was in the sixth grade.
Meps has been a problem with us. First off, Meps lost his paper work and the recruiter only found this out after we bugged him a month later asking what was going on when we were told that his paper work would be back in a week.
we got the paper work from the doctor again and sent it back to Meps and a month later found out the Meps doctor had dies and all paper work was in hold.
Last time we called the recruiter he said Meps had a fire that day.
Recruiter has also told us that he has several 20 some year olds trying to get in and there are no openings except for nucleaur and needed a asvab score in 90's for that and joe score is in the 70's.
My son is patient but considering the Marines, but he really wants to be in the Navy with his brother.
My son leaves Feb 7,But it took about 6 months for him to finally get sworn in .So tell him to hang in there and keep trying.Good Luck and God Bless.
