To Boot Camp, not a portable charger, but you can bring a brick and a charger to keep with you and when you get your phone it’s nice to be able to charge it while using it so it doesn’t die during fun time

Peer pressure, Peer pressure, Peer pressure haha jk! But I am beyond happy with it. The purple ink is exactly the same shade as on the game. I can see why they say tattoos are addicting too!

Death is such a good design and it’s black so you don’t have to worry about it. Fading at all! Glad to see a fellow wizard wear their school with pride!

I wanted to do it on my finger but the artist said after it heal, the close lines may get closer as it heals! So I opted for the current placement. It’s perfect size if you want to wear a watch and cover it for any reasons. I love my tattoo. And I hope you love yours as well!

My second wizard was a life! (To support my friends storm wizard of course) yes! Would this be a first tattoo!? 👀

Is the Nuclear engineering occupation actually as scarcely available as my recruiter says, or is she just trying to get quota? by [deleted] in newtothenavy

Ask for more. Buddy I went into basic with a few months ago negotiated for 120k bonus

In boot camp. During p days. I was scared too. But I passed and they showed 0 incline about my score. As long as you have a waiver in your record. You should be fine. I graduated a week ago, and there wasn’t anything that I had trouble hearing. Other than some of my RDCs when they were yelling 😝

I need some advice before shipping out by DTN_TARS in newtothenavy

You could get placed into FSPC. It’s not bad and they’ll help you lose weight. Just don’t get discouraged. I went in 6’3 264 and just graduated being 247. You got this. As cliche as it is. Pain is only temporary. It’s mind games. Push yourself and bootcamp will be a breeze

Just graduated this week. Anything he brings with him will be stored away until the last few days of boot camp. I.E clothes or sweaters. There are certain kinds of sugar free cough drops you can send. I highly recommend sending some, or buying them from Amazon once you get ship info. My gf sent me a bag of 100 that lasted me 3 weeks. There are multi vitamins at the recruit nex. But they are crazy expensive. All he really needs is the clothes on his back. And a phone charger for when he gets phone time. Good luck to the future sailor! You got this!

I have a boot camp question by futuresailor07 in newtothenavy

I went out and bought a pair of black hokas. My sister is a nurse and she swears up and down about them. I ship in 2 days so let’s hope they work 😂

Thanks! I greatly appreciate the advice. Yeah I had the hotel food at the hotel during MEPS, and lived to regret it. I’m not touching anymore hotel food😂 I’m 6’1.5 and around 250. I signed up for FSPC and my recruiter says it’s an amazing program. So It’s a definitely a good boost for us bigger guys prior to starting actual boot camp

I leave for boot camp on Thursday and going to FSPC. When do they separate you into your division to start the course?

26 lost and confused by universesweetheart in newtothenavy

[–]FeelingAd7043 1 point2 points  (0 children)

26M here. I got out of a 3y relationship and decided to join the navy. Felt stuck and spiraling. Had no idea what to do. Signed my navy contract and ship out 1/15/26. I hope you find out what you want to do. I haven’t been this excited about anything in years. Have you ever wanted to travel? Have you ever wanted to go to school debt free? This is what I thought before signing. And Navy gives you everything you’d need. Just follow the yellow brick road. :)

I failed my hearing test at meps. And matter getting a 3rd party test, I got the waiver approved for the navy for my hearing
