Hey guys! All of you east coasters - praying for your safety! We do hurricanes in Houston - in fact we would LOVE one right now!
Son and husband just arrived in Washington - he checks into Whidby tomorrow - he is excited. He was home for 2 weeks for leave and told me that he is going to try to either work with the SEALS or go IA. Sigh. I knew about the SEALS thing but had hoped he wouldn't want IA. So, thanks for the info, Craig!

Navymom4J - I am confused too. My son is also a 4 year CTT and his orders for San Diego also on a destroyer. Maybe that's where the needs of the navy are right now? Well he is excited. Was one of his top choices but I don't think he ever filled out a dream sheet.

Betsy - my twins are both going to Yokosuka Japan and they have found out from most that it is an excellent duty station. Many do not want to come home. They are excited to go. FWIW.

Susan - Both glassdog and I met Molly while she was here in Denver, She is an awesome lady. I'm glad she got the money to help the sailors....Glad Pepsi recognized her efforts..

Betsy - I totally agree, why do they give them dream sheets? Basically they are teaching them how to fill out the dream sheet. In most cases duty stations are given out by class rank. However, sometimes they don't, this is where the dream sheet comes into play. This is why I have preached so many times that I think a sailor without a CAC card reader is a fool.
Him being a CTT operator means he has alot better opportunity of going to a shore station than a ship. The duty stations you gave were all ships. Now if you're a CTT technical (6 years), you basically know you have no hope going to a shore station. You're "Haze grey, and underway".
NavyMom - He will know if he got a "C" school or not. Have him tell you what Naval Enlistment Code, normally called NEC code. Then you know exactly what he does.
If you look at this link, and hold down the "Ctrl" and hit "F" a find pop-up will display. Seach for CTT. Then you can see the codes they are assigned. This is how I know what flavor of CT they are. That code is like a dead give away on what they do.
I truly was doubting if I should post this link because it will probably really confuse you. But I'm going to do it anyways. Why? Because my wife hasn't beaten up on me for a while, so I will let you ladies pitch hit for her and kick me in the "jimmy" also....~ha

Question then: I am confused to what is "C" school- My son said he is in Shipboard ops (currently taking) and sometimes refers to it as like a part of C school? But he just got orders to San Diego- assigned to USS Lake Champlain- (and will be going to Sea for part of this time I am sure) . He is 4 year CTT. He put down San Diego as his 3rd choice on his dream sheet.

I'm just hoping that they don't send him to Japan.
-

Craig, yes he is 4 year. If that's the case, then why would they even give him the dream sheet? Kinda seems senseless to me.
-
-
Betsy - Is he a 4year CTT? The reason I ask is usually the CTT's that go to "C" school get those duty stations...
-
-
Well, my son got his dream sheet today. Choice #1, San Diego, #2, Hawaii, #3 Everett. Not sure how I feel about it, since I'm on the east coast. :( Oh well, I'm at least hoping he gets one of his choices. He said he should know in a few weeks. I hope so, since he graduates A school on Sept. 23. lol
G'sproudmom, maybe he will see your son there soon. :)
