After boot camp, the Aviation sailors learn how to properly tie down an airplane, how to properly and safely move an airplane, how to fight fires on a flight deck (and below deck), etc.

One of the first things your sons and daughters will be told if they are working on the flight deck or the hanger bay, is if you see the red shirts running off the flight deck get off the flight deck as fast as possible.

My hubby is also undesignated and he was told that he will be going for 3 weeks training, I guess in Great Lakes. He was also told by his recruiter that he can choose a rating he qualifies for after the 3 weeks. Does anyone know how that works out please.

Hello Chio,

He will eventually be able to choose from a few open jobs; however, it generally takes more than a year before that happens.
