Married Navy Nuke Life

[Yamel1226]

So I know some of these questions have been asked before, and I apologize for asking them again but I have not been able to find my answers. When I finally found a question similar to mine the poster had got their answer in a pm, so still no question answered. My main question is Can my Nuke husband and I live together during his school "pipeline"? If yes how long until he can move out of the barracks? I have heard that there is no leave time in between boot camp and him going to school. He graduates boot camp Oct.9th which is a Friday, so would that mean even if he doesn't get any leave would he even have like the night or weekend end to spend with me and his family before he goes to his "A" school? Specially since he is only allowed 4 people at his graduation can he go out to eat with the people that aren't allowed to go after wards? My last question is how many month out of the 6 year enlistment is spent on a ship? Again I am sorry for asking so many questions but thanks in advance for answering. Also we will have been married a year on the 26th of Sept. and we did get married long before he enlisted.

Relax Yamel, if you two are married, he should qualify for base housing right there in Goose Creek. So, you two can live together and he can pretty much walk to school. There is no leave between boot camp and A-school, but he will have a few days of admin business before he starts class. At boot camp, whoever shows up at Great Lakes can spend time with him, regardless if they have tickets to graduation. He may have to stand one short watch (about 2 hours) in the barracks after graduation. All of his loved ones will get to spend time with him on "liberty weekend".

Sea time is a different topic ... It depends on his ship or boat. His first ~2 years will be in school. The other 4 years depends on his type of command. Since I'm a former surface sailor, I can only give you surface sea time advice. What are his intentions?

Thank you "Easylivin" I am trying to relax but there is so many horror stories. Surface sea time? I know he was talking about mm though I have heard that is the worst of the nuke jobs. I'm not really sure but I think he was talking about going on a Nimitz. I really don't know much about the Nuke program or his options. What would you recommend? Also where are the possible stations after school? Are most of the overseas or in the states?

MM is the worst of the nuke jobs? Really?!!!
