Instead of just telling you about what your son or daughter will be experiencing at BC, Chief Arlene Maier will be your guide through this behind-the-scenes peak at Great Lakes. She’s actually an RDC at Boot Camp – a mom of three herself – and she’ll show you where your Sailor will be sleeping, eating, and training.

This video is part of a series to acclimate you to the many different areas of the Navy. We hope it helps you feel more informed about the Boot Camp experience and we encourage you to share it with your Sailor so they can get a preview of what’s to come!

Chief Vanderwall - A/C School

2009-01-12T14:57:50.594Z

I'm excited to share a new web video with all of you! As promised, this one is on the topic of A/C School. We hope this will start to answer some of the questions you may have about the next step in your Sailors’ career following Boot Camp.

As you will see this video comes from Chief Vanderwall, he’s a Senior Classifier out of Minneapolis. Since he helps Sailors get placed into their careers, he knows first-hand what A & C School is all about and why it’s important for your child to succeed here. Also, having come from a life in Sri Lanka that offered no means of attending college or a chance at a good future, Chief Vanderwall has found great success and opportunities with the Navy. His own mother was initially apprehensive when he decided to join!

This video is part of a series to acclimate you to many different areas of the Navy. Look for a poll on the site in the coming months, as we’ll be asking for your thoughts on additional video topics.
