People are trying to convince you to not make a horrible decision. If nobody cared about you they would just be quiet.

I’m not telling y’all I’m doing it I’m just asking about it but you guys want to act like good ol’ Navy leadership and jump down my throat and give me poo poo for asking a question. I appreciate being lumped in with the latter category, thanks.

This is what I assumed would be the correct response but my chief wants to handle it even though I've been told I'm not in a good position. I don't want to rock the boat and lose the support I have by "undermining" my chain even though it seems to be the only real option for success.

Seriously, just go to the Army thread and look up all of Mustang's posts. Watch as they take a bright individual who is going to do good things for the people under him, and then crush his soul out with Army Stupidity™ and then give him Stockholm syndrome, you can actually watch it play-by-play via his posts. Now he's giving handies behind the PX to get a better chance at promoting to the next rank. Like, joining the navy is water under the bridge, that's whatever now, but if you think Navy Stupid is anything next to Army Stupid™ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lKfupO4ZzPs orange juche fucked around with this message at 02:28 on Aug 24, 2018 |

If you really want to go through with going Navy to Army, please just think on this What would you like your life to look like in three years? Say you join the Army, what's the worse thing that can happen? What's the best?

I don't want to rock the boat and lose the support I have by "undermining" my chain even though it seems to be the only real option for success. We had sailors stashed all over Oahu and inter barracks transfers happened often enough. See if they can just move you to the Navy barracks (even if only on paper). Could be a possible work around if your CoC keeps being dumb. Also the idiot that is signing your BAH chit can't see beyond E4 being on the paper and no amount of explaining from your level will get that to happen. He isn't in a position to make decisions contrary to his COs standing guidance as he interprets it. Your Chief was wrong for throwing it back on you because he should know this. Your department head would probably be able to get someone to see clearly. It should go up.

They have absolutely no incentive to give you or anyone BAH. Barracks transfer to Navy barracks might be the technicality you need You could just solve all your issues and find someone to marry.

It's the same way when Marines live in Navy housing. USMC regs give a married E-6 a 3 bedroom house on base. Navy regs on Sasebo say an E-6 rates 2 bedrooms unless they have more than one kid. Same thing for a CWO2. Marines would give him 3 bedrooms but on Sasebo my old CCO had to prove he was Gunny before he got his commission in order to get the better housing.

The moral of the story here is if you're going to do some poo poo like enlist with a degree and/or try and go blue to green, just do that poo poo and don't ask for opinions. This goes for everything in life actually

Btw dude, I spent the first year+ of my enlistment as a SN, and then a PO3 in the yards at Norfolk during the overhaul of the Enterprise, and then I spent a further 6 months in the yards before transferring off that joint tearing it down after two extended deployments that were separated by about 6 months. Yard time sucks, I get it, I've been there, don't loving join the Army over it. orange juche fucked around with this message at 05:45 on Aug 24, 2018 |

But leaves FFC intact, I assume. Congrats, Navy, on adding another major command without giving one up in return.

C2F goes back to being the operational command and USFFC goes back to not having an operating role and just a admin role for all of the Navy.

Greetings from sunny Great Lakes! I will graduate ET A School next month, and I'd like some guidance on purchasing boots that don't destroy my feet and much as the boot camp boots. I know authorized boots vary by command, so maybe I should wait until I get orders?

Fred Dawes posted:Greetings from sunny Great Lakes! Yeah wait until you see where you are going. All the official authorized shipboard boots are steel toe and therefore heavy. All the authorized boots are differing degrees of awful really. On that note I liked the Belleville Sabre 533 coyote brown the most. Non steel toe because I'm a dirty shore sailor.
