Honestly I can tell you the Navy is amazing! I wouldn't trade it for anything. I believe that I have one of the coolest jobs in the military and have been in for only 3 years and already make more than 45000k a year right out of high school. I also just graduated College with my BS and will be an Officer soon. Did I also mention that they paid 100% of my BS and I have got to travel all around the world...
Let me know if you want more info. I have no problem talking to you on the phone and helping you out. Just let me know man. With the economy the way it is, you couldn't have a better job, have full college paid for, or a retirement if you do 20 years almost anywhere else.

Once upon a time I almost went the way Mikey did. He has definitely positioned himself well and enjoys his job immensely! Nothing wrong with that! I think most people in the military that complain about what they do and their pay are either not smart enough to do better for themselves, or don't have the initiative. I suppose that is true for most roles in life.
@jnut, you wouldn't be the first person to go that route. I suppose it depends on what you need to do long-term. Sometimes you have to make short-term sacrifices. Best of luck to you regardless. I have 3 kids and they are a joy, except I really live life for them.

the only reason I got out of the navy last year was because the wife is in the Army and she got picked up as an Army officer and I couldnt have her out rank me!!!

does the navy know what warfare even is(besides your infantry)??? i mean...."A-Hoey Matey, I think I see me a ship out on the horizon...." sweet, we just earned our warfare pins?? Now an honest question... What country other than N Korea has ships that we dont get along with? and dont say the pirates off the coast of africa!....they are in canoes!
