When is it usually a good time to enroll into TAPS or whatever theyre calling it now? Hit my 4 years in 2 weeks, going to have a year left unless I choose to do early out to register for the Fall semester full-time. Doubt that would be realistic with how fast things move here and moving to a city in Texas I've never been to simply to go to school there. Couple of dudes using early outs to leave and get on welfare to play Destiny all day/join the French Foreign Legion to get away from the Navy bullshit makes me :lol:

Does the Navy pay a flat rate to move your stuff back to your home of record and is it confined to one city or just the state in general?

I went to TAPS about six months out. Make sure you save all your paperwork (all of it) in case they don't record your attendance there and so you don't get dirty looks at the capstone event.

They pay the same as they would for a PCS. I don't know how it works re: other cities in the same state because I moved back to my home of record.

Wasn't it actually thin gloves inside of thick? I convinced a fellow recruit I woke up that it was two pairs of skivvies with a dry hand towel stuffed between them also.

Enjoy your Phase 1 liberty. Go catch a flick in your NSUs and don't forget to bring a backpack!

Wait were is it? Going to explore the rec center after stuffing my face.

Go to the bowling alley and take a picture of the deck out back. I was on the working party that built it and I want to see if our monstrosity managed to hold up.

BUD/S drops were annoying to be around. The aircrew school in Pensacola was full of them and they wouldn't shut up about it ever. Like a one-two punch of douchebag right there, especially the third classes who thought they were the kings of barracks support.

Whidbey Island. Terrible place if you are a young single Sailor but I was married when I got there.

Me too!

Whidbey Island is a terrible place to get divorced.
