Thank you Nola and Kelli. I would love to eat more about it Kelli. I did accept your friend request so feel free to message me. Nola thanks for giving me some more insight. I really appreciate it and I will be talking to my recruiter some time soon about it! :)

Aubrey, I sent you a friend request. I talked to Nathan tonight and he gave me some more information if you are interested. I will send you a message, too much to go into here! No worries Nola, Nathan told me he thought that Daniel had made it. Glad to hear he was right, congratulations!

hi Aubrey, I'm with Kelli probably no help either. My son is also an AG and is content on his choice. Was not tough for him to get that rate at all. Sometimes you have to wait and see what they have available. You might have a better idea after talking with the recruiter. Boot Camp is well...boot camp !!! no getting out of how tough it is but luckily it isn't where you will stay and there is an end to it. My son is back in MS. for C school also and just made AG2. He is very excited. Sorry Kelli, haven't told you yet as the list came out yesterday and well....you know.

That's great! You wouldn't happen to know if it was tough for him to get that rate, would you? How was bootcamp for him?

No worries! I really appreciate any insight given to me! Like I said, it's a job that I really have my heart set on and I talk to a recruiter on Tuesday, so hopefully she can give me a little more information. Thank you very much, Kelly! :)

I really have no idea. Since he was out of high school, my son did all of his stuff on his own. I didn't even know about it until a few months before he left for boot camp. What I can tell you is that is was the best rate available for him at the time. They tried to talk him into the nuke program but he did not want to do that. He has had a good experience and is just starting C school this week. He spent the last 2 1/2 years as part of the fleet survey team at Stennis Space Center in Mississippi. Sorry I wasnt more help!

Hey everyone! I just have a quick question if you could help me out. I'm considering joining the Navy and I was wondering whether or not the AG rate is competitive to get in to? I really have my heart set on that job.

SpudzMom-I don't know how to get a list of graduations. But my husband just graduated AG school this past Wednesday, and they only knew a couple days in advance that they were graduating.

Does anyone have a list of upcoming graduations, or know where I could get one?

Another AG, super! They seem to be few and far between. My son has been in MS since he graduated A school and will also be starting C school soon. October, unless that changes! Good luck, hope all goes well for your daughter as she starts this journey.
