    Good luck to all of the new recruits heading to Navy boot camp. I had went to Navy boot camp back in 2000 that was 24 years ago. I was in the Navy from 2000-2008 as a CS3 SW/AW. HAVE FUN MY YOUNG NEW NAVY RECRUITS AND SAILORS.

    You can keep your personal running shoes… your still issued Go Fasters, but using your own is much better 👍

    In my division we weren't allow to use the Pedialyte/Electrolyte powder until after the red lights came on. Our 3rd RDC didn't care but if our 1st RDC saw it in our hydration tool. One of two things would happen. Usually, we would get the blue card for disobeying a direct order. If he was in a good mood [which was rare] he would just ask us to pour it. I never bought those things at the bootcamp NEX, because they were really expensive. Around $9.99 for a pack of 6. My advice is to just drink the blue Powerade in the galley. It's free!

      Ah, a salty dog like myself. I can remember like it was yesterday...
      RTC San Diego: graduated Mar '84 Co. 902 with BM1 Franklin
      We got the same trash can alarm clock at 0300 after flying in from the East Coast around midnight
      Woke us up, fed us, shaved our heads and we were still wearing civilian clothes
      Spent 2 weeks in R&O before commissioning because we arrived two days after Christmas

    12 years ago? Ah so you went in the year before I did. My day 1 was super boring lol. Nobody yelled at get off the bus surprisngly. It was slow, and boring affair overall. Hardest part was staying awake. Also I never wore the glowbelt when I was on my own but I also never double-timed too so I was little shit-bag haha. Funny enough this lard of a lady at MEPS did yell at us right before we entered. Haha.

    Question, I leave July 16th on an EOD contract, I've been hearing from multiple sources and I would appreciate it if you could confirm this, but is there still the 800 Division or have they gotten rid of that and all spec war/spec ops contracted people are integrated with regular divisions, also if so, will we still do extra pt or not? Thanks.

      @jackis5581 the “hash marks” or “Service stripes” show years of service. Each hash mark / service strip represents 4-years of service 👍

      it depends if it is officer or enlisted. if it is enlisted, each hash is 4 years of service. if it is an officer, it is their rank

      No, but you may get them later on after bootcamp depending on your rate. As a rule of thumb, the more combat related/chances you will be deployed with Marines. The more likelihood you will get them later on.

    • @askardc
      @askardc  15 дней назад

      You will get subsidized for it. You will receive an extra pay bump in the beginning that covers most of your uniforms. What is left is dependent on your paygrade and whether or not you have dependents.

      it depends, before they all had the same bob cut. But they allow them to have it in a bun during bootcamp in accordance with uniform standards
