I have read the Navy AG A school stuff that Google returned. Some say about 3 months for school duration others say 19 weeks. The 19 weeks was from a recent Navy page, so I assume it is correct.
I read somewhere (I can't find this again) that the first 14 weeks was combined Air Force and Navy. The last 5 weeks was Navy alone. Is this true?

A-school is at an Air Force Base...I would assume so- it shouldn't make a difference.
I get not secure warnings with Chrome for some of those links...not an issue in all the years I've been clicking them- it indicates an issue with the HTTPS certificate
My browser (Firefox) will not connect to that site. It says it is insecure. I tried the microsoft product and it worked. Paul had provided two sources, each with a different length. Will it be mixed Air Force and Navy?

Aerographer was established as a rating in 1924, and in 1942 the rating officially changed to Aerographer's Mate.
The Navy's computerized personnel system associates the rating name with an alphanumeric Navy Occupational Specialty (NOS) code. For AG, the NOS is A410.
An Aerographer's Mate is the Navy's own weather forecaster. Aerographer's Mates are trained in the science of meteorology and physical oceanography; the Navy's meteorological and oceanographic experts. AGs learn to use instruments that monitor weather characteristics such as air pressure, temperature, humidity, wind speed and direction, and then distribute this data to aircraft, ships and shore activities.
Aerographer's Mate "A" school is located on Keesler Air Force Base, Mississippi. The school is 19 weeks in length.
This link says 19 weeks, which is right?
