Ask A Spook! Cryptologic Questions

Just to piggyback on the CTT aircrew question... if you pick up orders, you'll have to attend Naval Aircrew Candidate School in Pensacola, and SERE in either Maine or San Diego. Take a look at what's in store for both those schools to make sure you're up for the physical and swimming requirements.

I love that you have to go to SERE and NACCS to become Aircrew. I'm currently at 8:40 in the 500m, 67 push ups, 81 sit ups and 6 pull ups. I've been working my booty off in the off chance I have the opportunity for Aircrew, or CTR and volunteer for it. I want to be more than ready if the chance presents itself.

I first met with my recruiter in March weighing 217 and I could barely knock out 25 push up and sit-ups. I'm now down to 190 with the numbers previously mentioned. I'm taking my opportunity to join the Navy very seriously and I can't wait to serve.

Coop;

GOOD! I knew a guy with a VERY similar story. He wasn't in shape at all before he joined and by the time both of us hit the fleet, that dude was a BEAST (oh and he obviously passed Aircrew school with flying colors)

If you want it bad enough then you'll put the work in to get it. It doesn't sound like that's a hard thing for you to wrap your head around. I'm sure you'll do great, just keep it up.
