Title: few questions about being a navy nuke
Post by: nnuke1013 on Feb 06, 2011, 10:53
hi everyone, im new here and have a few questions about life as a navy nuke. im hoping to become a MM in the near future. my questions are, approximately how many times can i expect to get put on a fleet/sub in the 6 years of my active duty? how long will i be on a fleet/sub? whats the difference between being on a fleet compared to a sub? and i heard their are some things that can keep you from going on a sub like your ears or nasal problems. what kind of problems are these?

Thanks, Jack

I am not sure what you mean by fleet, but I assume that it is a carrier you are talking about. Anyway, did you look around the forum? Start here;

You can expect to go to fleet whether that be a sub or a carrier being that all the ships together are known as 'the fleet'.  You can also expect to spend about 1.5 years at school and 4.5 years or your first ship.  That leaves you enough time to get out of the navy after that.  I would also reccomend that you do some more research before signing six years of your life away.  Researching things before you do or ask about them will serve you well.  Good Luck;)
