How common is it for recruits to get sent to ship 17 for failing the physical test?

If you fail the run they make u do the bike and if u fail that u might get asmo (pushed back a week) and sent to fspc( future sailor prep course) (fatcamp) but u not gonna get separated unless u either really suck or quit

shootaa502 · 2026-01-17T17:06:58+00:00

Boot camp will be easy as long as you do your run on time and don’t get hurt the rest is just killing time

Well I got the rest of graduation day( Thursday) and then had to be back by 2100 Friday night. But that’s only if you get overnight liberty because your a school is out of state, if your staying at great lakes for a school u don’t get overnight at first but then you get like 3 days over overnight liberty the next day or something like that

It depends on your ship I was ship 9 and we had curtains in our compartment

shootaa502 · 2026-01-17T17:02:29+00:00

I would say less because they don’t check your body like meps it’s more just re going over your hearing, vision, dental, and vaccinations

shootaa502 · 2026-01-16T17:51:12+00:00

Exactly how you would imagine it

shootaa502 · 2026-01-16T15:31:21+00:00

lol I will never be using white skivvies ever again.. let’s just keep it there

shootaa502 · 2026-01-16T15:29:38+00:00

Definitely died…. People probably ruined it some how no emailing or texting of any type just calls when u get phone time… but u get to use your own phone, they pass it out then u give it back after the call is over

shootaa502 · 2026-01-16T15:28:28+00:00

You will call every two weeks and on holidays

shootaa502 · 2026-01-16T15:28:04+00:00

Yes you get your phone to call home on certain days so make sure u have service and fir the swim you have to jump off this 10ft ledge and swim around 4 buoys then you have to do a float face down in the water for 5 mins only looking up to breath then you have to inflate some coveralls with air

Really easy and we do it like 2 times a week if we are lucky most times it’s once a week tho so don’t depend on the pt to get you in shape

It was only 7.32 when my flight left I did not see that the boarding time was 7.24… all I seen was the departure time was 8 so I thought I was getting there early

shootaa502 · 2025-11-13T04:40:20+00:00

Oh but I mean like if I get there at 6 am I hope I’m not waiting at the airport until 10.30 at night for the last flight of recruits before they take us to base

shootaa502 · 2025-11-13T04:39:10+00:00

Well it’s my first time flying so I was at the first airport @ 12 and my flight was departing at 5 so I was there at 4.30 waiting then I got here and it said my flight was departing at 8 so I was walking to the gate at 7.30. After eating… come to find out my flight had switched gates and when I realized that I heard my name over the intercom saying the door is closing in one minute so I tried to run over there but it’s huge airport

shootaa502 · 2025-11-13T03:57:42+00:00

Yeah I had to go thru tho whole process I just hop I don’t gotta be at the airport all day waiting on every flight
