Also I believe from what I have seen if I just bring dress uniforms, working uniforms, and utilities, I will be like all the others.
Lastly, my college is not requiring me to take any of the placement tests because of boost. Does anyone have a link to a better description of the Math (in particular) work we will focus on.
Tim,
No actually I am in St Louis Mo right now, and I am going to fly out of here to RI. I looked into making the drive all the way to SC then flying up to RI but the flights were more expensive and we arent looking to buy a house until this summer. I am originally from St Louis so I am staying free with family here which is nice. Man I think you speak for all nukes when you say you are waiting to see what will screw you next. It really is such a shame that we all have that same attitude, but I guess there is a reason for it. I do think though that for the first time in our careers, it is time to let a long sigh and for those of us not returning to the dark side, put that mentality behind us.
Tony
does anyone know when the uniform change is in Rhode Island? thanks for the help.
I know the further up the coast you go, the later into the spring that it occurs. If I had to guess I'd say sometime in May, mayb even early June...
Good to see I am not the only one that feels like since I am getting a deal that is good beyond belief, that there has to be 'the other shoe'. I am pretty sure I am going to end up with hemerhoids from sitting on my lazy butt afriad to go outside for fear of injury. I see an ice cube and I think 'that would cool off my drink nicely' but then is immediately change my thought to 'FU ice cube you will try to slide down my throat and lodge yourself in my lungs'. So hopefully with some time I won't dream of Rickover's dead old man arms reaching through the early morning fog on the campus of SDSU trying to pull me back towards the submarine base and make me draw trim and drain before I have to stand my ERLL proficiency before I can stand SRW after the shutdown before I have my biannual requal board so that I can take the continuing training exam to ensure that I know how to pour water from a big bottle into a little cup and press a button a bunch of times to make the machine tell me magical numbers that don't match the numbers that it said before so that I have to fill another bottle and repour that water into little cups and hope and pray and do a little rain dance to make the machine tell me numbers that make sense so that I can sit and stare at the wall until I have to do it all again. I can hope anywayI just have the normal nuke train of thought, "How am I going to get screwed next?"
