Getting stationed on Shore as AECF

calie89 · 01-23-2014, 03:40 PM

There are some FCs who get shore duty straight from A school. They get shore duty to one of the training commands for FCs, and complete C school during the 2 years they are on shore duty, then spend the rest of their time in maintenance (at least thats what they do here in Dahlgren)

However, just last week it was put out at our command that some of the people who got those shore duty orders would be sent to a ship after they completed school anyways.

The whole getting shore duty from A school (for FCs) started about a year ago, and it comes and goes, just depends on needs of the navy. It may very well be gone by the time you comp A school.

And as said before, BAH before E5 won't happen whether ship or shore (unless you have a dependent)
