I will say this again..if you love the prospect of having a career in the nuclear field and that has been your goal in life, and you are great in the physics and math..then by all means take a nuke contract. BUT if you were talked into it and the signing bonus is what swayed you, as this was NOT on your list of jobs in the navy to begin with...do not think your life will be easy going this way....yes it is a great career, but it is not for most people.

For those of you that are already in that pipeline and in training now..come back in a few years and tell me again how great it is....for some it will be, for others not so.
