Dude do you remember the sonic booms we would hear every single time the shuttle landed?! It was always so exciting!

Those were the best, the house would rattle. Watching the launch from the beach was fun too.

join the marines lol

Right after I got the ball rolling with the Navy recruiter I spoke with the Marines recruiter and he wasn't interested at all. He said my age wasn't a problem if indeed I did as many pullups and got the ASTB score that I claimed but he sounded annoyed that I was already talking to a Navy recruiter.

Also, USMC officers are required to have significantly higher PT scores than Navy... like 18 minute 3 mile time high.

like once to get in or constantly?

Constantly ?? 18 mins is max, 19-21 is competitive, 24 is minimum at OCS

Would be pretty epic if results dropped on the 80th anniversary of Pearl Harbor

My backup is to go for SWO or nuke. My OR already mentioned if I wanted to go Nuke and want to ship out soon (like in the next 2 weeks) I can enlist and basically get a commission after A school. Granted I meet the requirements after A school.

Working as civ for almost 4 years, I realized this isn't for me and I regret not trying to apply to NROTC programs for college or even the attempt to get accepted to Annapolis. I was set on being a pilot so I went this route but now I just want to be in the Navy so whatever I can get, I will take.

 

[davidc1220]

Im dead set on pilot but I'm wondering if SWO would be a good backup

What made you decide to pull the trigger after 4 years? Just had enough or something specific?
