My job "rate" is Master of Arms. The job description is pretty much anything from anti terrorism to guarding oil refineries to being on a ship all the way to K9 duty<<< which is what im going to possibly pursue more. No signing bonus. Active duty 4 years, then 4 years of reserves ONLY if they call me. No 2 months out of the year BS like some other branches. I can also change my job after 2 years and retake the ASVAB to get a better score to qualify for a different/better jobs if I wanted. But right now, im happy. Im stoked to get out this town and do something ive been wanting to do for 2 years. I wanted to do MMA for 3 years, and im doing it. This is the next step in my life, and I finally manned up.
I also dont know where ill be stationed in. Boot camp is 9 weeks in Great Lakes, IL and A school is 7 weeks in san antonio, TX. After A school, there will be a dream sheet with every possible place I can be stationed at...inside & outside of the U.S. I pick my top 3.

Yea my foster is in the Navy. Went in Eagle Scout, did well in all his classes in A school and got his pick on a sub........in San Diego. Finished his A school and got his assignment and arrived in San Diego about 1 or 2 days after the sub set off for the east coast for refueling! About 11 months later he finally got to go to sea. Now his boat has been re assigned to the east coast, go figure.
