My one and only son just signed up for the navy! I wouldn't consider myself over bearing, but I do want to know what's going on in his life. I'm pretty sure I will get more info here than out of him! Lol...
You will find this site very helpful and full of members who are eager to answer your questions. Browse around the site and check out the forums, groups, blogs, photos, videos, and even the other member profiles!
The Rating Information Card for MN can be found at https://www.cool.navy.mil/usn/enlisted/rating_info_cards/mn.pdf. (If you get the security warning, it is safe to go there.) That indicates Ingleside, TX, but that is wrong; “A” School has been in San Diego for several years. It also indicates that “A” School is about 19 weeks, but “A” School is about 13 weeks after classing up and “C” School, which is also in San Diego, is about 3 weeks.
Click on OPSEC and PERSEC (Making Changes to Your Profile) and the Page will open in a new window. Read the Page and follow the directions at the bottom to make change 3 (see the words in bold) so that this page is no longer visible to EVERYONE (Anyone) with access to the web. Don’t forget to click the “Save” button at the bottom.
There may be other changes you need to make as well, so read and consider each of the changes.
Another change that I recommend that is mentioned in change 1 is to change the ZIP Code to one that is not easily associated with you or your Sailor.
