So I'm 20 years old and recently signed a Nuke Contract. i leave for Boot Camp Nov 1st. It amazes me how little my recruiters can actually tell me about Nukes. I've been able to speak with one MM for about 10 minutes so you can bet i squeezed all the info i can out of him. However, I'm still left in the dark. I know i have to make it through school and take it one step at a time. But, I'm confident ill be able to grind and fight through it. What i want to know is what is the actual job like? I've heard everything from, "Nukes don't do anything" to, "Nukes works 24/7." and i figured why not ask people who've already been through it.
I would also like to know when i start to receive my signing bonus. I assume it would be after schooling is complete but, i cant seem to get a solid answer. I would really like to help my brother out while he's in nursing school so this lump of money can be a real help.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
-Jay
