Thinkin bout joinin tha navy

[O.T.I.S.]

Now i know they say tha military is no place 4 a black man especially a young black man & i always said i'd never go but im really considerin joinin now.

I live ina land of no opportunity & i wanna make a better person of myself plus i know if i do go i'll finally gain weight & ima have all that navy training.

Anybody here eva been?

I saw on military.com they hada do 400 pushups & situps ina day on top of pullups & a 1.5 mile run

First of all, the only bad decision you MIGHT make is not joining the Air Force


Other branches are cool, but start there


And i am Navy, most these dudes can't do 200 push-ups in a day let alone 400.


Only thing you will have to worry about really is your run and swim. Everything else should be easy... Physically speaking.

The Navy is a branch that prides itself on comparing itself to other branches. Don't be one of those guys.


And what job you thinking about doing? I have my preferences... There's like 5 sides to the Navy (6 if you include Marines), but it's Air, Surface, Subs, Specops, and Intel. Pick your rate pick your fate foreal

Don't do Spec-ops unless you really about that life...

A lot of people think they are,... Then find out they not. If you worried about 400 push-ups then you might as well forget about spec-ops

Which 1 did u choose?

 

[O.T.I.S.]

Which 1 did u choose?

I think what's more important is what I wish I had chosen... Air

They all have their good sides and bad sides though


I was originally supposed to go surface... Meaning being on surface ships. But got dragged in another direction

How come u wanted Air over Navy?

 

[O.T.I.S.]

How come u wanted Air over Navy?

Air is like a division in the Navy, for lack of a better words


There are jobs specifically related to the air side of the Navy... Dealing with jets, P3, squadrons, etc. The nikkas that bomb the shyt out of everything. Navy actually deals with more Airplanes than any other branch

Then there's a surface side, meaning the battleships, carriers, and etc., that you see on tv and in movies. There are some air guys that are on those because they work on the choppers and planes and stuff

Then there's a submarine side. Straight underwater, nukes, etc., I would personally avoid that unless they gave you a big bonus

Spec-ops is like SEALS, Devgru, etc.,

Intel usually requires a Top Secret clearance just to even clean the bathrooms in those sites.

All of that is Navy and It's kinda interchangeable for certain rates (jobs). Me personally I would've enjoyed the air side more I believe.

I would've done Specops but I wasn't a strong swimmer... And I'm lazy usually with bad eyesite
