If I’m remembering correctly from my time at Corry it seems that 6y sailors - reserve and active - got a C school. I’m certain that was the case for CT rates with the exception of CTNs. When you...

Your contract will no doubt have you going to Corry Station for IT A school. But the RC to AC will not be in your contract. They are calling it a “program” but it’s hardly that. It’s more...

One thing to consider is that just because you may not be able to switch over to AC doesn’t mean you’re out of luck. There are tons of mobilization options in the reserve. You could finish up A...

There are always exceptions to everything in the Navy, but just did a quick check on RC to AC and they’re only taking ITS as far as IT rating goes. And those have to be in later year groups like...

From personal experience I would recommend you not get your hopes up on IS. I was told I'd be rerated to IS or IT or CTR (I was a CTN drop) and I got PS, EO, and EM as options. I chose PS. I know...

You'll be assigned another rate. It's impossible to tell you what the rate will be because it's based on what's available at the time. I was dropped from CTN and was given three options that I had to...

If I remember correctly you'll be issued a supply. After a week or two you'll be able to go to the NEX and buy the brand/style you prefer. I don't think they let you bring your own.
