Welcome to the world of Navy Nukes, Eric.  Not to sell this site short, cause the guys (and a few moms) here have been great but the Navy for Moms website has good Nuke group discussions too.  One group for Navy Nukes, one for A school Charleston.  Some of the parents there have daughters that are going into the Nuke field.

Well, last week my daughter enlisted as a CTN. Monday the navy calls and said "we know you just picked your job.....but we just had 2 spots in nuke open.....do you want one?"

We schedule an appointment with her recruiter for last night. We get there and "there just happens" to be a MMC in the nuke program who "just happened" to be in OC from San Diego. Mind you this guy has only been in the Navy for 7 years and is a Chief.

To make a long story short.... Her new ship date will be in January or February and she will be going Nukes!!!!!!!!!!

Well, couldn't arrange transportation, and wanted to help him move, so I put 2200 miles on his car, he's now on grad hold in BSpa.  An epic drive to a gorgeous part of the country - much nicer (rural) than Charleston. He is living in approved housing, 4 other guys, 3 acre place, 10 minutes from the base.

@ Phillip....No. Unfortunately we are in NJ. 3yrs and I'm retired and can't wait to move out of state. Also as far as the car goes....When I was in the Marines I had registered it in NC where I was stationed. The only reason I did that was it saved me a ton of money on insurance.

Just found out my Daughter passed her finale for "A" school yesterday and will be graduating Friday. Then it's a short vacation for her in Las Vegas and then the wait to start powerschool.

Yup, got the same call.  Separating from Charleston 5/10, must report to BS 5/20.  Yikes! He already has housing, now just got to get him his car!

Well so much for 8 months of grad hold in GC.  7 weeks after PS grad he just texted me that he is headed to NY in 7 days.    Classing up in BS ?  I'll get more news this weekend.  Told him to think positive and go get that bonus money !!!!!  I'm sure he was looking for a longer vacation from school.

Ken and Gerald - Congrats to you and your sailors!

 

Gerald, one of my son's good buddys (MM) has also been assigned to the Roosevelt and is thrilled!
