Hahaha - funny one Paul!  Taken in the spirit of humor ;-)  We all know how our nukes truly are so it's ok! (And I hope you don't mind I borrowed it for another group!)

 B'sNukemom&dad⚓️CVN75 Thank you for posting the article. Though it has been some time since my son completed PNEO (he is now XO of a boat) it is enlightening to see a different perspective of the challenges he encountered over his career since he minimalizes them when sharing with family.

Interesting article, "Call me a Nuclear Engineer".  I know it's about officers, but interesting nonetheless.

Hi all - Happy Friday!  Been kind of quiet around here.  Sailor is in VA on the Truman - doing his thing now.  He's anxious to start getting his quals done....so far so good.  We've got to start planning our visit to VA ;-)

I haven't commented here in months. But I do get comment notifications, so I enjoy seeing the positive comments. Yes, "B'sNuke" I've seen these statistics before. It is a challenging program, no doubt. But as our son did, if you stay out of trouble, "stay your course' and stay focused the can succeed. Our son finished proto beginning of December. Was assigned to Kings Bay (his first choice!) and is now underway. Possible 3 month deployment on a SSBN. It was tough for his mom & fiance', but before we know it he'll be back. May be able to email us updates. We're proud of what he's accomplished as all of you are for your kids. God bless & Godspeed to all of them. You all have a great weekend! Geaux Navy!

This was a statement I saw on FB today - posted by a mom at the Power School grad today: 

"The guest speaker said: 1% enlist in the military.  1% of those apply for the Navy Nuclear Program.  70-80% of those are accepted in to the Navy Nuclear Program and 75% of those graduate."

Happy Friday all and happy 1st day of Spring!

Welcome to the new members!  I "bumped" the discussion on "Your Sailor's Schedule Upon Arrival at GC" in the discussion forum above.  Gives you a good rundown on what will happen & when.
