Questions for Active Duty HM's
Alright guys. So long story short, I've been waiting two years for HM, then when I finally got my contract last July, I was ecstatic. However, I really wanted a guaranteed C-school, and didn't get it. I didn't know if FMF could ever be guaranteed, but if it could I wish I could have gotten it.
For the actual question: Where would I get stationed as a basic Corpsman? Without an NEC? I would definitely take FMF if I was given the opportunity, however there's always the possibility they won't have female orders. Second question: Where are the best places to be stationed? As always, thank you all for your input! I know it's very much appreciated by everyone, including myself. |
The basic answer to your question of where you might get stationed....where ever the navy needs you and what is available at the time. You could be on a ship or on land...needs of the navy come first, not what you may want or not want.

***EDIT*** That's not to say though you couldn't go FMF after your first tour if you don't get it the first time around. But that would take a few years. Quote:

HM's are literally everywhere there's a Navy installation... when I was at Portsmouth Naval Shipyard in Kittery, Maine, the only uniformed personnel were SERE students and instructors, MA's at the gates, and HM's. You could get orders across the world... or you could get orders right back to RTC and give P-Day recruits shots.
The one place you're very unlikely to go right out of school though, is to a ship... that's generally seasoned Corpsmen since manning on ships are less than shore-based medical clinics or hospitals. |
Thanks for the feedback!
