Thanks Sandy...I will ask him more next time I speak with him.

Grace, Have you heard anything more about that? I imagine hands-on training for QM would be very efficient, but I've never heard of that before. I'm interested to know if they really do that in certain situations. Good luck to your son!

My son is on the USS Kauffman (undesignated), seems to have the impression that they would train him on the ship to be Quartermaster.

Grace, All Quartermasters must attend school, which is at Great Lakes. Feel free to ask any other quetsions, and I'll try to help, since my son is a recent grad. :))

Is it possible to be trained as quartermaster without going to A school?

Hey all!! Just checking in to see if your QM sailors had gotten their orders yet. My son just got his and will be heading to Mayport Fla. no later than the 25th of Sept. He should be getting leave soon to come visit us first!! Have a great day!!

Yes, Sandy, in fact, my husband is leaving tomorrow for a business meeting at the U of I. He would love to retire but alas, too many financial woes. The work keeps him mentally stimulated, though.

Thanks Dana. He is going to Mayport at Jacksonville, FL. That was his first choice, so he's really happy.

Carla, I appreciate your kind words! I'll think positive about a leave in October! That's awesome that you know Urbana! Does he come to the U of I? Mike is retired from there.
