5. I saw a few people comment on this one and thought I would share my personal experience with this question. I signed my nuke contract in January and am due to leave in August. My Chief has offered me 3 separate times to leave in March, May, and June. Spots for nuke open up randomly is what he told me due to various reasons such as security clearance issues. Put the word in to your recruiter that if a spot opens you would be willing to leave early. Then with a little luck one will and you can jump on it, you never know. Hope that helps.
