Hello, my son is in Lemoore going to school for AT. Most I think go to Pensacola but I am not sure why he is where he is at. I do know he will be heading to Virginia and will be on the Truman eventually. He doesn't communicate too much so I end up doing alot of research on my own. I do know he has a squadron now but not sure if I can share that.

I will tell him that, I appreciate the advice, thank you!

K⚓️, tell your son to do his best in A school. The sailor with the highest grade picks first for orders and the lowest grade picks last so doing good will pay off. At least that’s the way they did it back with my son. Things may have changed - my son's been in 10 years

Have a beautiful day!!!

Comment by K⚓️ on February 18, 2022 at 8:24am

Thank you MaggieMay, I appreciate the info. 

Comment by MaggieMay on February 17, 2022 at 9:51pm

Not all AT’s go to C school. My son didn’t know until he got his orders at the end of A school. He got orders to go to C school for calibrations then to a ship in Japan. Some will go straight to the fleet after A school and possibly go to C school later on. Best of luck to your son in A school!

Comment by K⚓️ on February 17, 2022 at 9:32pm

My sailor signed his contract for AT and is awaiting A school. My understanding is afterwards he'll go to C school for a specialty? 

Comment by MaggieMay on February 16, 2022 at 8:43am

Well hello there K⚓️!!!

Comment by K⚓️ on February 15, 2022 at 9:42pm

Hello there! Anyone out there? 

Comment by MaggieMay on March 11, 2021 at 8:49am

Hellooooo is there anyone out there?  Unfortunately this group has gone by the wayside. It would be great to get it active again so if anyone is out there speak up!!

Go Navy!

Comment by Viola on April 10, 2019 at 11:48am

Good Morning!

I have a question about leave.  I would like my son to come home for 4th of July.  We live 6 hours away.  He can now leave base overnight but he cannot leave base without a leave buddy.  Can his leave buddy take him to the airport so he can fly home and then pick him up at the airport?  Logistically, it would be very difficult for us to drive to the six hours to Pensacola to sign him out before the family event on the 4th.  

Any guidance would be appreciated.

Viola
