Yay JCB's mom! I can't believe I only have 3 more weeks until he will be able to call when he wants for the most part. I have so much to do!!!!!!!!!!! I need to make his banner, our PIR ribbons, purchase his graduation gift, plus all of our things going on here at home. Wow! The time is going to fly. So thankful!

Mom of3 I don't see your discussion but it depends on his command. My son was allowed to go to Jacksonville when he was at Corry but he still had to get an out of bounds Chit. We are about 285 miles away. All your sailor can do is apply and see if they approve it.

Very good to know CryptoDad. I have a CTR. 

JCB's mom my CTR will be graduating just a week ahead of yours. I bet they will be at P'cola together for A school! :O)

 Bookster,

The Navy Special Warfare Command (NAVSPECWARCOM) does have need of Tactical Information Operators (TIO) drawn from the ratings of CTR, CTI, CTN & CTT. These CTs can work directly with SEAL and SWCC units to provide a wide variety of tactical information operations support including electronic warfare and select computer network operations. Guys can find themselves in ground combat situations and get training in tactical and crew served weapons. Women can serve as Tactical Information Operations analysts (TIOA) outside the hot zones.

So, if your CT wants to hang out with snake eaters there is a backdoor into the Special Ops world.

My SR is set to be a CTI but she just wrote in her last letter that the RDC told them about the earthquake and that the Navy had sent in Coremen and MA's to help with survivors.  She said she could see herself doing that, but I don't imagine they send the CTI's in for rescue efforts all that often.  And her training is almost 2 years so I can't imagine it is all that easy to switch ratings after that.  Oh well.  Still proud.

So glad to see this group reviving. I have a CTR (hopefully) :o) in bootcamp.

My son is also CTM. He has been in for 4 1/2 years now and likes it very much. He spend his first 3 years in Japan now he is in San Diego. He has made some great contacts for why he does decide to get out. But he still has another 2 years.

Bookster don't worry about it. My son wanted to be a seal and then kept changing his mind. He is a CTN and was at Pcola in 2012. He has learned about so many other opportunities since then he doesn't even think about being a seal anymore.
