Over 8 years active so far. Currently AE2 (aviation is best ) stationed at NAS Atlanta. Previously stationed at NAS Brunswick ME, MCAS Cherry Point, and NAS Pensacola.
actually at the prep school they consider us to be in the navy, we are called Midshipmen Candidates, or M/C's and we have the same paygrade as E-2s. We actually get payed more per month than the first class (seniors) at the academy. But next year is when it really starts counting. Im excited, I grew up around the academy and it has been my dream to go there ever since I was little.

If you can make a career out of the Military or government work, by all means do it. By the time many of us get to retirement age, most companies won't have a pension plan and we'll have to hope our 401 K's do well. Plus there's the health care cost issue.
The Navy is a blast, you'll remember the places you go and your shipmates for the rest of your life. I still look back at deployment pictures and wish at time I were still in.

After a particularly entertaining evening of fun in Italy, I returned to my ship, hit the pit, and slept the sleep of the innocent. In the morning, everything was normal, except all the people were different. It turned out to be our sister ship. :laugh:

I think I drank so much between 18-22 while in the Navy it's out of my system. I rarely even drank in College and my wife thinks I'm a bore sometimes. I guess I can blame the Navy for that.
