34 and going to RTC

whitkid22 · 02-15-2014, 05:37 PM

Hi everyone,

Just curious if any others are shipping to RTC in their 30's? I have always wanted to serve and am looking forward to the adventure. I'm 34 and shipping in April as an MM-S.

fellawip · 02-15-2014, 06:00 PM

Yep shipping June 2nd. I am 31 and will be 32 right after boot!

whitkid22 · 02-15-2014, 07:31 PM

Sweet, what is your rating?

fellawip · 02-15-2014, 11:52 PM

AV! What about you? Can't wait to get there. I guess we will be the grandpas

whitkid22 · 02-16-2014, 09:17 AM

Yeah, I'm sure we will get the Grandpa comments, but we will be good mentors. I'm going as Machinist Mate on Submarines.

fellawip · 02-16-2014, 09:53 PM

So do you plan on making the navy a career?

coraldjohnson01 · 02-18-2014, 09:36 AM

whitkid22 · 02-18-2014, 05:47 PM

Nice, I'll be there too! I'll be a month in. What is your rating?

MMSFutureSailor · 02-18-2014, 08:58 PM

Not quite 30's yet but I am shipping to rtc Monday at the age of 28. I will be 29 the week after I graduate. Going in as an mms as well so I might see you around.

fellawip · 02-18-2014, 09:29 PM

Well don't forget to come back and let the grandpa's ..lol.. know how it went! And good luck to you! Seems like a lot of mm-s lately

fellawip · 02-20-2014, 10:16 AM

Well i'll be 29 in april and i ship out 3 days later. So i'm pretty close to your generation! Add me as a friend.

whitkid22 · 02-20-2014, 03:16 PM

It's going to be great to have so many good friends. This site is a blessing. It is making the transition much easier and it will be interesting to see where we all end up.

Hey we ship the same day! There's another future sailor from my recruiting station that ships that day too and has the same rate as you.

Breakdancer/EOD · 02-20-2014, 03:22 PM

RockyFin · 02-27-2014, 10:45 AM

Who ships out in april?

nicholson1211 · 02-28-2014, 01:15 PM

Hey, folks! I will be 31 when I go off to boot. Keeping up with those whipper-snappers in PT may be a little bit of a challenge, but I do not care. As long as I can pass my PFT, that's all that matters. I just hope none of those snot-nosed little brats are the cocky type who mouth off just to get more IT for all of us! But whatever, I'm sure I'll be fine as long as they let me bring my walker to RTC

whitkid22 · 03-02-2014, 12:17 PM

I'm excited to be able to focus on working out and watching the show. Much less stressful than the job I have now.

whitkid22 · 03-02-2014, 12:17 PM
