Farewell.....

[pavlovk1025]

Going in for Basic at Great Lakes, then straight off to SC for Nuke School (going in for Nuclear Engineering) and after 2 years of school out to the fleet on either a sub or a carrier. I am hoping for Sub. as for food the subs get steak and Crab every week.

Who told you that lie?! lol
Subs get better food, but it aint that much better.


Enjoy boot camp.. I swear I wish I could go back. Be prepared to refold your underwear about 50 times a day for the sake of folding your own underwear. Nuke school is rough from what I understand, but if you make it through look forward to never seeing the sun again...carrier or subs.

Congrats! Decent station to have basic at! Wow, 2 years...I complained about 6 months! And yes you nailed it - squids get the cream of the feast when it comes to food supplies. And if you get carrier based and push 72" like me, you'll learn to duck, constantly. The passageways are not designed with ease-of-comfort when going through! Just take two hands and vault yourself through.

Pushing 50 ehh? CVNs are a tad bigger these days.
