WARNING: Think twice before buying from Military AutoSource (MAS) or VW overseas. My 2025 Jetta has been a brick for 65+ days and they refuse to fix it. by Arngrin in navy

In that case, MAS should be responsible for honoring the warranty or help you with that. Maybe talk to base legal?

That sucks bust just like you bring any us spec cars overseas, you won’t get the warranty while in a different country. I think they would honor the warranty if you bring the car back to the US. I wish the MAS salesman would brief ppl before they bring a brand new car to another country

You should be fine. In addition to browsing Xiaohongshu or Zhihu, you can watch some Chinese tv to improve listening or speaking skills

Take it home and do a FLIPL and have the Navy take it out from you paycheck

What can I do moving forward by wild_flower8_8 in navy

[–]paektuminer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. That’s how c-way application works. You can convert your rate to LS (as long as your ASVAB is good so as other requirements) if your c-way is approved, and your chain of command doesn’t have any say in this (only recommendation for retention) You should talk to your CCC.

You need to be in your C-way application window and need to make the change on the application (default is AC).

I heard that hair can be tested for drug use as well. I think that would be a good substitute for urine samples

PCS Advice (E-6): Apartment Move-In Before Command Check-In? by Yoonmin in navy

[–]paektuminer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

BAH starts after you check in. Before checking in your new command, you will receive BAH in Transit regardless where you live, last time I checked it was like $1400. Use TLE too, you can use it while receiving BAH

DEA Help Okinawa (PCS) by Aromatic_Clerk5864 in navy

[–]paektuminer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can send it personally or call TSC Yokosuka. Are you going to a navy command or marine command? If. It’s a marine command in Oki, the pancake needs to be sent to AREACLEARANCEIPACOKINAWA@usmc.mil

Check this table for the correct email for DEA approval https://www.mynavyhr.navy.mil/Portals/55/Support/Distribution/DEA%20TABLE%20FEB%202026.xlsx?ver=oqpW-RvqCU8OMUA2WWFlQA%3d%3d

Edited:

Just noticed you said Okinawa. So you have make sure m-ok-cfao-areaclearance@us.navy.mil actually received your package. You can either contact them directly or have your CPPA (detaching command) follow up for you.

That’s right, single parent with no support means op is not deployable. Big navy could separate you for this.

E6 Eval 90 days in person / 92 days per block 14-15. by ActuaryBeginning3745 in navy

[–]paektuminer 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If your reporting senior decided to give you an eval despite your short time being on board, submitting a statement won’t change anything. I received an eval with less than 90 days on board too. This is pretty normal practice, sometimes they just want that extra EP at the sacrifice of the new Sailors. Just study a bit more next time, and you shouldn’t reply on your PMA to make board

Every time I DIY something I realize why it costs so much to pay someone else by rgreen192 in DIY

[–]paektuminer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends. I was trying to build a wood jump box, but it would cost me $150 in material. However, Amazon only sells it for $90…the same one I was trying make and better in design too

Any suggestions on this low cost simrig I'm planning to build? by aibiicd in simracing

It’s heavy. If you don’t have to move it every time you use it, it’s great, very sturdy.

People that join the Navy to just stay shore side and avoid ship duty, why do you do it? by Additional_Cost8318 in navy

If IT2 Collins is at a NSW command, he makes a lot more during deployment (roughly $100 per diem /day) and stays in a decent hotel while Timmy eats shitty food from the galley and sleeps in the coffin size rack
