This is not a cop-out to say, but need to spend some time with some recruiters...and I would make a point to talk to several if possible. The Navy is in a transition phase right now (economy and lack of goverenment support/funding) and where it will be in a year or two is anybodies guess. We have some Navy folk onboard...go to Members and search for Craig and Chief West...they can probaly answer some quesitons. We also have a Ask A Recruiter group...yu might try posting questions there as well. I have a link at home for a great on-line ASVEB prep "course"...if I don't send that when I get a chance over th enext day or two, bug me for it....migth as well get used to what kind of questions you'll have to answer...the better you do..the better your chances.

Pay...not very good, but with a familiy, I cannot say....something to explore with other that have been down the road....

Please explore the site and make some new friends. Read the discussions and add your comments. Browse through the postings in the various groups or start a new one. I certainly have! If you have any comments, questions or concerns be sure to post them! In my experience someone here can answer your questions or concerns or can point you in the direction to find out. I'm blessed to have two sailors in the family - my son Eric (AM3) is stationed on the carrier Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71) and my daughter Kat (MC3) recently completed her enlistment on the carrier Abraham Lincoln (CVN-72). And Ronald this is a great place to brag as well! So join in, get active, and be sure to let us know how you are doing! Please remember that we talk about the Navy here and we must keep the security and safety of our sailors and the fleet in mind. On the right or starboard side of every NavyDads page is an area we call About This Site. Please take a minute and read through the Operations Security (OPSEC) link for some guidelines as to what we should and should not talk about in a public forum.

As a future sailor soon to be at Great Lakes you'll have many questions about what you will be going through. In the Navy Bootcamp group is a discussion called A MUST READ for all New Navy Parents. Read through this post as it will do a lot to give you some understanding about what you will be learning and why. And be sure to check out the videos available in the Bootcamp Group as well.

As PIR draws closer, be sure to spend some time going through the PIR-Tips, Hints and Helps group- we’ve tried to assemble some tips and suggestions to make your PIR more enjoyable. Best Regards- Paul
