One of the bonuses of going into the navy for me is the ability to travel. I hear that nukes never get to leave the carrier. True?

I also have heard that the job kind of sucks, and the bright spot it the pay.

I guess I am more interested in IT or CTT, but I don't want to pass up a good oppertunity.
I'm currently in NFAS. Like everyone else has said, choose the job you want in the navy because you want to do it. The nuke path isn't for everyone. I personally love the challange the pipeline has given to me thus far. If you choose it because of the sign on bonus or the re enlistment bonus you're going to hate the job halfway through a school.

But to answer your question, nukes leave the carrier just like everyone else. You might have to stay on board longer but you'll get port calls(assuming all conditions normal)
