A good career is ahead, if you keep your attitude. Attidue is 95% of what it takes.

I just signed for the reserves to enter as a E-3 RPSN. Help pay for my college so when I am done I can go into the Chaplain Corps

I am back and BTW I am still the same old groundpounder E-7 I was before.

Im an undes airman w/vaq-129

Salior85- just one question what is a undes airman .Welcome aboard

Undesignated airman. He isn't rated, didn't go to an "A" school.

Sammy -I was just curious why he did not call himself a Airmen Duce.So they have changed the policy to where you can go to "A " School as a E-2 I didn't know that.

after RTC i went to pensacola(sp) for 3 weeks for avaition apprenticeship training. Currently im looking for a rate to strike into but a lot of them are closed.

Wasn't trying to be condescending Sully. Yeah, if you don't go to an "A" school, you are undesignated, and like 85 said, you can strike for a rate later. Most undesignated airman end up becoming ABF's

Sammy no problem I just never saw a Seaman Deuce wearing a striker Badge.Most important Welcome aboard Salior 85.

Funny thing about Navy rating system, When i went to 'A' School in Millington for ADJ, my instructor was an ADR.

gunny -just about the same time I got out they were changeing Propulsion in most of the Ships to Gas Turbines even though I had already went to Turbine (B) school it was a lot different because the school in 1958 was for small Turbines used in propulsion on small Minesweep boats .In 1973 when I got out is when the Engineman kinda went out the window and all of these specialist started appearing in the Fleet.

I know, I just thought it a little strange that a Chief whose rate was Aviation Machinst Mate Radial engines was instructing us on turbine and turbojet engines. Big difference between pistons and turbines.

gunny-I am sure the Machinst had Jet training school.Even in the old days we had MM's standing Top Watch and even had MM's in A gangs mainly for repair for Valves and pipeing .
