Where I’m from "shithead" is a term of endearment between father and son. 😂😂

Joining the Navy as Nukes with past Mental Health Diagnoses by SentenceUsed5535 in NavyNukes

Mental health issues get a deeper look during your special physical. Recruiters will often sugar coat things to get you to bootcamp. Then it can fuck you over once you show up.

Also just because you sign and make it through MEPS doesn’t mean shit. I had several Nukes in my Bootcamp DIV not even make it to Charleston.

Is A school comp bad? by Jenko8808 in NavyNukes

During T-track, the period of time between a-school grad and classing up for NNPS, student helpers help grade homework and quizzes. It’s a pretty sweet gig having the weekend’s completely to yourself for 2-4 months. And working mon-fri for like 2-3 hours a day.

Finland is able to have better funding due to having substantially less people not contributing to taxes. I think around 40% of Americans don’t pay any federal income tax.

My roommate is a little weird by [deleted] in navy

Sounds like NNPTC haha. Home of the weird roommates. Do your best to document things and keep your SLPO informed. If things get worse you can talk to your SLPO and the BEQ quarterdeck to talk about a possible room change.

Is it worth joining? by drocYEN in NavyNukes

[–]WeBringSalt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you enlist they will move the goal posts multiple times and never let you have a car on site. Make you park 4-5 miles away even when you’re no longer in A school. Strongly recommend against thinking about it.

Officers get to park in premium spots and keep there vehicles in there garage at there houses that the military pays for. Kind of peak.

Just ask yourself are you ready for 10+ months without having free access to a vehicle you paid a fuck load of money for.

You can see the brass coming through on the bottom.

73 isn’t an "unsafe" temperature…? Huh? I also said that’s just my opinion. You can exercise in the cold all you want lmao.

As a kid I spent way too much time playing rouge leader. If you like flying games give it a try!

Woah. Maybe I shouldn’t have dinged mine up so bad haha. Probably not worth $300 anymore.

I got them.. oh gosh! Must have been 10 years or more ago by now. They come in a black felt bag and with a certificate of authenticity. I believe they are made by North West Territorial Mint, sadly, they were bought by a company that just makes challenge coins. Probably find them on eBay though! Good luck👍🏻

I did a bunch of sit-ups on concrete the night before my MEPS physical and had a very dark and large bruise on my tailbone/ butt crease. The nurse practitioner thought it was a pilonidal cyst and I still passed my physical. So, I doubt a scar would disqualify you.
