<p>Thank you all for the kind welcome. I told my daughter I really appreciated her becoming a sailor because I was having a blast already being a Navy dad. I've spent so many hours on line looking things up and sitting down at the recruiting office picking the two Petty Officers brains that I feel I could write a pretty comprehensive history of the Navy..........LOL Just an old retired geezer. Anyway thanks for the nice "Welcome Aboard". I have a couple of questions if i may. Jennifer won an…</p>
<p>Thank you all for the kind welcome. I told my daughter I really appreciated her becoming a sailor because I was having a blast already being a Navy dad. I've spent so many hours on line looking things up and sitting down at the recruiting office picking the two Petty Officers brains that I feel I could write a pretty comprehensive history of the Navy..........LOL Just an old retired geezer. Anyway thanks for the nice "Welcome Aboard". I have a couple of questions if i may. Jennifer won an award last week where she had to be recommended for it by her RDC's. She said the female Petty officer is a woman of few words, but when she speaks she commands a lot of respect. Well Jenny said she became quite vocal when she was discussing the actions that led to the nomination for the award. Very high praise apparently. Sorry. I guess I was bragging a little bit there. Would anyone know the name of the award. Jenny said they rattled it off so fast all she heard was, "merit" "war" and "dinner with the Admiral at the PIR with Mom afterwards. One more question. When she hits A school she thought she was told that if she graduated as one of the top three sailors in her class she has the option to choose the site of her first duty station. Any where in the world. Is this in fact true? So thanks again for the help and I am looking forward to talking with all of you....

<p>My daughter, Jennifer is graduating boot camp on 06/08/2012 and heading for A school in Pensacola FL. She probably has received her orders by now but we have not heard yet. I know that there are there are three rates in this field. AT, AV, andi I think AS. Does anyone know the differences between the three. Thanks</p>
