DAR-Getting Ship date changed

FutureSailor24 · 07-11-2013, 09:29 AM

I honestly don't have my heart set on the my current rate which is HT. Although I'm not sure what other rates are available to me based on my ASVAB score.

Ah, that was my original ship date when I started, my DAR got approved and now it's set for 20130814. Which is quite rare to happen since I am going Nuke.

My other issue is that there are alot of rates out there that the Navy doesn't show on their website. I have to get some things done before I can ship out such as sell the furniture in my apartment and then get everything boxed up and stored at my parents house. Also there are some things that I don't want to miss out on mainly the hunting trip that my dad and I take to SD to hunt pheasants every year and then there's the holidays and I know that once ship out it's going to be hard to make it home for that stuff. Also I know that for my rate I'll spend the first 54 months on sea duty which will obviously include a few deployments. I appreciate all of the great information that everyone has given me, but I probably won't ask my recruiter to put in a DAR.
