Our son is a CTT stationed at Pearl Harbor (NIOC Hawaii). I will be glad to answer any questions that I can. He has been there about a month.

My son is stationed at Pearl Harbor. He is working at Kunia right now for a couple of months. He had his car shipped. In fact the Navy paid for shipping his car. Our son just had to get it to a certain location. He was in school in Pensacola and just drove it to New Orleans (about 3 hours away). It took about three weeks for it to get to Hawaii. My son would be lost without a vehicle to get around in. If your son has a car, I would let the Navy ship it. We paid nothing.

My husband was stationed in Norfolk when he was in the Navy. We lived there for 5 years,but a lot has changed. One thing that hasn't changed is the Naval Base. It is huge. Its the home to the Atlantic Fleet. Several aircraft carriers and their escorts. My son lives in Virginia Beach with his girlfriend who is a native of the area. My favorite spot is Williamsburg, which is less than an hour north of the base. Tell your son to explore the area, it has a lot to offer. Of course if he is a CT he won't have a lot of time. My son tells me that they are crazy busy and short handed. He's a CTN, so I don't know if that applies to your son. My husband and I are planning on going to visit some time this summer.

Dawn, I'm sure your son will get Norfolk. My son is stationed there, he's a CTN,and he tells me that Norfolk is the least popular choice. Although it was his first choice, others want Hawaii or California. It is also a great time to buy a townhouse or small house in Virginia Beach. There are a ton of forclosures there.

Corry Station in in Pensacola, FL.

Cheryl, our son did C-School at Corry. He will only be at Kunia for a month or two. He will be working at Pearl Harbor after that. Is your son air crew?
-

Hi, Cheryl! Our son graduated from C-School at Corry Station on a Friday and left Corry that day. He (and his dad) drove his car to New Orleans to be shipped to Hawaii. Then they flew home to western PA. Our son was home for a couple of weeks. He arrived in Hawaii yesterday. He is stationed at Pearl Harbor, but will be training at Kunia for a couple of months. Our son is a CTT.

This academic board is similar to the ones the Nukes have. The academic board will determine if he just had a bad day or if he can't handle the demands of the program. If they feel he can succeed they will put him on probation and set up a study program for him. He will need to bring his grade point average up. I know the CTNs failling grade is anything under 89%. So saying he failed is not like the high school 65%. He might not have to much to make up. Hope this helps.

The majority of his securtiy clearance should have been taken care of while he was in BC, The hang ups only seem to surface because they are so cut off while they are at GL. These guys are needed so badly that the Navy does everything they can to get them through the process. Just some times you need to stay on top of things. Its that squeeky wheel thing.

Marie, It took about 2 weeks after they got the employment interviews finished. Then he had to wait about 3 weeks until the next class started. Chris tells me that the CTN classes are incredibly small and so they need to wait until they get enough people. His class had 6 students in it. He's very happy being a CTN. He made Petty Officer 2 exactly 1 year from the time he left BC. Of course he already had a degree in computer science, so that puts him on a faster track. But he tells me they are so short on CTNs that their promotions come pretty quickly.
