No, I did not. As stated, it was an impression I based on how "it felt to me" [going through the process]. I also stated that I was unsure as to the reality of the situation behind the scenes - given I don't have many years of service and experience in recruiting. There seems, as evident by...

No one can make this decision for you. You have to weigh the pros and cons respectively. Conversely, ask yourself without thought, "What is it I want to do?" If you go against what it is you really want to do, you'll probably regret it. As for the recruiter, I'm not sure on the reality behind...

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say no. Advice: If you want to get into deep sea welding, enroll in a school that specializes in deep sea welding. If you want to join the Navy, join the Navy.

Kartik, You still have to go through the NOAB before the offer. You still have a bit to go. What does that mean? Lots of time to train. I'm also on the heavier end of things. I started at about 300lbs (I'm 6'2"). It has taken significant effort and focus, but I am now down to 220lbs. Prior to...
