I would say to prepare learn the fundamentals of how hardware and software work and like the first few layers of the OSI model...

Yeah as I said, CTMs are I think the smallest rating in the Navy (definitely one of them). CTMs can go offshore--I've seen pictures of CTMs on the Navy Cryptology and Technology Facebok page assigned to ships, one was even a member of his ship's VBSS team. And this CTM in the video got to do all of it, worked at some sort of data/computer center at Fort Meade and visited a few countries during that tour and now he is headed off to a ship.

It does say on the rating card that CTMs normally get two tours of sea duty before their first shore duty.


As I said I will be able to keep you updated as I am scheduled to be there from at least late January/early February. You told me in chat the other night...but when is your ship date for boot camp again?
