Ron--- check out this Career Planning Group link.....there is some info about the rates and available billets in the charts.
For the very few jobs available, advise your son to study for the ASVAB as much as posssilble to score as high as possible----if he can get into the 95 or so range he has a good choice of being offered the rate though he'll be pushed towards beng a Nuke....stand firm and get everything in writing!!
When my son first enlisted in the Navy I found NavyForMoms in searching for answers to his future. I just knew their had to be a site for dads but found out 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 hope this site will benefit fathers that follow behind us. So jump right in share concerns, join groups, share info, and learn about the Navy. I hope this site benefits you and your family throughout your sons decesion in joining the Navy. Thank Chris for his soon to be service for me and for yours as well. Thanks again for joining us.
Patrick is graduating a school dec 9th and will be driving home at Christmas. I hate to say it but I do not recall his class #. They start power school in February. I know that Pat cannot leave school until the day after xmas (some duty nonesense or the other) but he would welcome passengers if it would help. United from Charleston to Charlotte, to TPA seems to be the best plane routing we found.
