Oh I guess you don't really need AVMED so any of these prob could take care of you depending on where you are at:

I just called them and they gave me a bunch of crap and eventually told me I cant get it done there. I have all my records with me now since I am in between commands. My last ship is in the yards in NN and I cant get on to it because of the whole SY badge issue so I guess Ill try Little Creek? Maybe theyll be nicer.

Another question

So I am on a submarine base, have no experience with aviators really.
Do NFO's and/or Naval Aviators even wear BDU's?
Because they have thier green poopy suit don't they?
Sorry for probably such a dumb question, but I really never see aviators.

Seaweed and barnacles is me clothes, the hair on me head is hemp, every tooth in me mouth is a marlinespike, every bone in me body a spar, and when I spits, I spits tarrr. I's hard, I am, I is, I arrrrr"

With the NWUs, all you would have to do to swap them over is just change your nametapes and rank. Everything else is the same. Though I don't think you will wear them again once you go to NSI (I base this on no experience BTW), and when you get to your NROTC unit you probably won't wear them either. You will probably wear khakis/dress uniforms.

From my experience, Sewells Point is faster and more accomodating than Oceana. I had to schedule my SNA physical a month in advance and was at medical from 0645-1700 on the day of my physical at Oceana. I don't think you will have much of a problem going to Sewells if you let them know about your situation.

Sorry for probably such a dumb question, but I really never see aviators.

I have seen very few Aviators wearing BDU's and all of them were on non-flying orders (disassociated tours).

No, Aviators don't wear green poopy suits, they wear flight suits. Submariners and HT's are the only Sailors I've met that wear "poopy suits". The rest of the Navy wears coveralls (flyer coveralls=flight suits, or the standard blue/green coveralls). ;)

Welcome to the world of Naval Aviation! :D

So essentially what you are telling me is, my command may be forcing me to buy a uniform that I will not use for probably more than a month.... great... haha

I was able to do a walk in with Oceana. Said they do the SNA physicals on Tuesdays if I recall. Since it is a full battery of everything under the sun it did take all day but not an unreasonable amount of time. Call and ask to speak with aviation medicine.
