    NEIP...what is your opinion?

    Unless you have a spouse/ gf or bf why would you want to move out?  First year salary isn't that hot; you'd be spending much of your earnings on rent. I know I plan to live in the shacks till I have enough money for a down payment on a house

    Navy doing trials on new clothing???

    I hope that black t-shirt trial doesn't cost any money because that would be a stupid waste of well needed cash.

    Just swore in RMS clerk naval reserve

    Congrats on joining the naval reserves, best decision I ever made. I loved it so much that I'm transferring to the reg force. I did basic in Borden last summer and I can say you'll have a blast. I believe there is also a spring bmq course if you're interested. It's a longer course than the...

    Is April To Late To Apply For The Reserves?

    I applied early May 05 and my file wasn't approved until 2 days after the cut off date, long story short I couldn't go to basic and had to wait till the following summer, but it was well worth the wait. The cut off date was about a week or 2 before the bmq course date. The best bet is to apply...

    Dropped out to join, thinking about getting out to finish school - Opinions?

    Xoshua I also dropped out of school (college mind you) to join the regs; I put in a ct from res to regs and I'm still waiting. While I believe college is optional, highschool is definitely not. Finish your highschool than give some serious thought as to want you want to do.
