Quick YN Question

blacktemplar · 11-10-2015, 01:50 PM

Hi all,
As you may of read around I dropped from JCAC, and now I'm contracted 4YO to be a YN.
I'm expecting lots of office/ admin work and the like.
My only question is what are the chances I'll get shore duty right outta A-School.
My money is just needs of the navy.

As you said, it always comes down to needs of the Navy, but for YNs it is pretty easy to get shore duty out of A school at this point.

Here is a link to the NPC page for YN

Click on YN Community Overview (current as of Oct 2)

Look at the Force Structure Manning to BA for E1-E3

Sea is currently staffed at 90.4% of BA (raw numbers = 35 openings)
Shore is currently staffed at 54% of BA (raw numbers = 69 openings)

So right now it is pretty easy to get shore.

And I also know that specifically out of the last graduating class nearly everyone got either shore duty or overseas.

That's what I read & thought, thank you.

Hey if you have any specific questions about the YN A school, that is where I am right now.

Don't be surprised when you get here, this base has a real sleepy village vibe. There is not a lot to do around here, but honestly for me after the madness of bootcamp that was really really nice. It also makes it a lot harder to get into trouble...

You're in YN A-School or just the NAS?

YN A school, about halfway through.
