Can i get MA with the PACT seamen program?
I had to choose the PACT program because i wasn't eligible for MA when i went to MEPS and i wont be for another year so the counselor told me to get the PACT program and then to strike for it.
I was reading the PACT seamen program info card: https://www.cool.navy.mil/enlisted/r...ards/spact.pdf and did not see MA as an option to strike for. Do you guys think is it an option or should i just go for a rate and then try to cross rate after the 2 years? |

It is a rate that you can strike for. Im at MA A School right now and in my class there are 2 fleet returnees who were undesignated. Some of the instructors will even tell you that they came in as a PACT seamen and chose to become an MA.
