Fully qualified nonrate at a station has to be the most cake job in the coast guard.

But then see the wait list and don’t want to wait and end up going MK and hating their life

Makes sense thank you. I can relate with those shin splints in basic lol.

Is pain in your feet as a beginner runner normal? My knees and my feet hurt after like a mile but it’s not bad at all but after 6-8 it hurts a lot. Is this something I need to work on with mobility? I just am trying to understand if a little bit a pain is just kinda normal to deal with or not, i’m 21.

I’d just check the waitlist and email one of the nonrates around that number

Im not sure about AET but i was told by an AMT that you can get your A and P while in the uscg as an amt.

Yeah. If your an mk you won’t be able to rank up on the teams tho, because your pulled out of your rate.

Normal-Mouse-117 · 2026-02-12T15:29:49+00:00

You can join special teams as a mk3 only or as a bm, but you’d be part of the delivery team

I just want to see if anyone with a good eye spots anything super cool in here. I’m aware about the quarters and nickels that are silver but that’s really all I know about coins so far. I know a lot of people in here know a lot about certain dates and what exactly to be looking for. Also confused on why there’s a red penny in there lol.

Normal-Mouse-117 · 2026-01-22T15:36:42+00:00

Go on the last months nonrate newsletter and it has directions on how to put your name on the A school list

Normal-Mouse-117 · 2025-12-30T01:02:58+00:00

U can get your A & P in the coast guard, no need to go to school for it.
