I know that after boot I will be going to Pensacola for A-School hows life out there?

Gonna throw this out there. If your going to an amphib ship you won't see much of your actual rate in Port. The squadrons (meu and hsc) bring in their own crew to do actual maintaining of the air craft underway as the squadrons come to the ship(53s, 22s, av8s, huies, cobras, 60s) and you will be doing more administration stuff. This is just from being part of AIMD I'm an AS and work with everyone in AIMD while I have been on LHD6.
