The purpose of this group is to allow family of new sailors assigned to school at Training Support Center Great Lakes a chance to voice questions to a Student Division Commander
Hi all my son is attending A school in Great Lakes Graduated Sept. 1st and is going to school to be a EM. he just recently started school last Monday. so from Graduation until Monday the 18th he was waiting for his classes. was told he would more likely be there for 6 months. No C school unless things have changed which I am sure he knows nothing about. Just spoke last night with him and he said he can begin wearing civialian clothes on the weekend and If I can send him some. does anyone have their Loved one in BEQ 634?
Just an FYI all engineers are aslo called snipes here is a list of engineers and snipes all in the same. they all work together they are the ones who make the ship run. Hull Maintenance Technicians, Damage Controlman, Machinist Mates, Engineman, Electrician’s mate, Gas Turbine System Technician so join enginneers and snipe moms.
Good Morning MomSeanEM2, my son is in great Lakes he just finished yesterday his technical training, Monday he starts ATT after this class then it determines if he gets into A school for EM. they have so many weeks of technical and so many weeks of ATT then with the grades it determines if he attends A school for EM. he Loves it. So I believe all together it totals 6 months of schooling. At least that is what my son had told me. He is in BEQ 634. He graduated BC Sept. 1st of this year. If you go to ratings it will describe what he will be doing and also how long he will be at sea and on land. very interesting. Also google EM they are also known as Snipes and that also is very interesting story. so any info is appreciated. Thank You
