    Tem thanks for joining. I found navyformoms in searching for answers to my son's future. I just knew their had to be a site for dads like n4m's but I was wrong. So I started this site so us dads would also have a place to call home. I'm new at this and I hope this site will benefit fathers that come behind us. So jump right in share concerns, join groups, share info, and show off your sailor. I'm so glad to find out their are so many proud navy dads just like myself. Thank your Son for his service for me. Good luck and thanks again for joining. EG

    Tem,
    Well, as an airdale I will proudly say aviation is the best choice. But that is a very biased if not skewed view of the navy. Aviation has very good advancement, however one thing the Navy can pride itself in is this. We reward those who demonstrate an articulate knowledge of thier rating judged by the Advancement exam. Secondly we advance the most motivated in the rating as seen by thier immediate chain of command based on thier eval and award points for the hard work they show. Based on that they get ranked, and advanced based upon our qouta for the year. PS and CS are very good rates, I tell my guys who join this: "Pick the job that you most see yourself doing for the next few years." And I have yet to see one come back disappointed that they didn't see a job they liked. Jet mechanic (AD), Administraitve Clerk(PS) or Cook(CS) one of them has got to interest him. As far as each one's advancementup to E-5 they are about the same. Performance is the key to success though. I hope that helps him decide, I hate to push someone in a direction they are not interested.

    Hey Tem, welcome to Navy Dads. My son is with the Delayed Entry Program. I am trying to get his braces off so that he can leave for the Navy. I will keep in touch and this is a great website. Take care and God Bless.
