I love the video but.........my son just returned from MEPS with 20 other young men and they were all told there were no jobs in the Navy. Is this being used as a recruiting tool or just as a advertisement?

Well they sent my son to MEPS a day earlier than planned. Not sure if that is good or bad. He called this evening and I think that he is going to understand the military slogan of "hurry up and wait" real soon. He said that he sat in the recruiter o…

When my son went to MEPS the first time,6-2008) to join the DEP program, I went that day also. This helped me insure that he got the right job he wanted and to keep me in the loop. Our MEPS encourages parents to attend every time they go to MEPS. If…

Well they sent my son to MEPS a day earlier than planned. Not sure if that is good or bad.

He would not tell us what he is going to choose for… Continue

All the paper work has been signed for the Delayed Enlistment Program. I had said that I would not sign any paperwork that he could Enlist by himself when he was 18. My sons cousin is stationed in California in the same path that my son wants to follow. So there has been alot of pressure on both sides. The recruiter told us that… Continue
