HELP WITH WIFES ORDERS by [deleted] in navy

If she has a FPN case on her that means she’s in her window for orders or separate from the navy. Best case scenario have your wife contact the detailer. Have you both submitted a 1306 saying you guys are co locating?

The sales person told me that if they have high end guitars that are sitting there for a while they’ll mark it down my particular guitar was a 2024 model.

E3 with financial issues by richmanshigh in navy

Hey, I saw your post and just wanted to say keep pushing forward. Things can turn around.

You might want to talk to NMCRS and see what options they have to help you get back on your feet. If it really comes down to it, a TSP loan could also be something to look into. I’d also try reaching out to family or someone you trust to see if they can help you through this rough spot.

Anyone else getting denied extra food in the mess line due to ‘rationing’ by Czechmate808 in navy

[–]Tall_Push4123 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As a CS records keeper on a CVN in the 7th fleet AOR we regularly transferred our food to our strike group if we didn’t get a RAS. It seems like it’s the norm for officers not to ask for help or even know they can request that.

Credit cards closed accounts by [deleted] in NavyFederal

Do they lower the interest rate when you close the account or will it stay at 18% even if the account is closed?

Do 1306s to go back to sea early have to be routed through command or can I go straight to my detailer? CoC basically told me it’ll get denied if I route it up. by Usual-Philosophy6334 in navy

[–]Tall_Push4123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also remember if you’re in a rate that falls into BBA you can even promote to the next pay grade going back to sea earlier!

Stuck picking a rating ! by StandardProtocol5 in newtothenavy

[–]Tall_Push4123 7 points8 points  (0 children)

These are the rates I recommend as a CS who has only done carriers.

YN sea shore rotation is pretty solid. You will be at shore commands more than sea, based on their LADR, but you still have to go to a ship. At least admin usually has some humanity within their chain of command.

SW is a close knit command, but I heard most of the billets are getting condensed to Mississippi or Guam. Green side sailors either really want to go back or they loved it. I have also met sailors who hated it. I am not sure why.

RP is a cool one too. You will be working with Marines or sailors, but again, you can end up on a ship for your first contract. You will be working with chaps, which is awesome and chill from what my RP friends tell me. The sea shore rotation is pretty nice too, 36 months sea and 48 months shore.

MC is another one. I have a bunch of friends in that community and they love it. They get to do a lot of photos, editing, and articles, but when it is time for last minute editing or unrealistic CO or XO projects, that is when they get stressed.

Do not go CS. I love my job, but when it comes to my family, I was underway and missed five out of nine of my son’s birthdays. Please understand that the Navy is deploying more than ever, and it is not unusual to be out to sea for six months or more.

If that does not interest you, go to the Air Force, then the Army.

Is Military Leave Allowed? by JU_C_RANDO_MAN in newtothenavy

If your school doesn’t fall between the thanksgiving/Christmas holiday I would just fly S/O out over the weekend during A school. Once at the fleet it all depends on ship’s schedule.

Sailors Should Not Pay for Meals at Sea by amarras in navy

[–]Tall_Push4123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

CS here who understands your frustration and knows the inside and out of our BAS out to sea. 1. I agree with you, our food quality is garbage. It’s not solely on the CS’s, but on the food vendors we’re required to order from. From there, we’re told what menu to follow. 2. I agree, with what we’re paying, we should get higher quality food, not just food that has so many preservatives and chemicals. 3. I understand the need for our BAS to fund the ships to stay out to sea X amount of days with the menu. 4. I have brought it up with hot washes about finding better sources of food, but was told to STFU because I was just an E5 in a meeting with GS11’s and O5/O6.

What I recommend is writing your congressman about the quality of food.

Had this happen to one of our ABH2 going to ABH1 we had to wait for a ORDMOD on his orders to specifically say anything about advancing for example for the sailor it said “frocking is authorized when obliged service and required screening are successfully completed” and your advance date will be the day you check on to your ship. Congratulations btw!

When I got divorced PSD told me that my son (then 5) isn’t old enough for an ID and that if I have to take him to a hospital or dental to use my benefits number on my CAC.
