in a school out of 1000 or so kids i saw graduate.. i counted 6 that got carriers. 2 got hospital ships 1 that got a destroyer and one got the frank cable..so that would be about a 1% chance of getting a ship as your first duty station if you were in san antonio same time as me. on the bright side you probably do more pt care at a shore command or green side. doctors and nurses rarely go on ships.. theyll deploy with mercy or comfort nd serve as medical officers.. but there too.. odds are shore or green side... i just about beg the navy daily for sea time.. its hard to get
