What is a Navy MC?

MC · 06-10-2012, 07:15 AM

I originally went to my recruiter with this job in mind. After they told me that it's aessentially a phantom job, that they've never seen assigned, I decided to go CTI. Unfortunately I missed the test score by 6 points for that job. In small talk with the navy liaison at MEPS, he asked what I'd do if I couldn't be a CTI. I explained the whole MC thing, and all he said was "anything is possible." Next thing I know, the job counselor (whom I've neer talked to) tells me they had 3 MC spots open up a few minutes earlier. In short, I was just rated for my dream job as an MC. I have never been happier.

Congrats!

I had a similar story and didn't think MC was an option due to the small amount of MC's in the Navy. Everything worked out for me and i couldn't be happier.

I ship 20120926.

So i will be in Maryland for our A school when you get out of boot (looked at your shipdate in the other thread) , but i will see you then!

If you want a great blog about MC check this out

Go back to the start of his blog when he was at A school then you can follow what he did when he joined the fleet, it was a great read.

2 weeks

, last name is Melone, if you don't see each other at bootcamp because of different divisions, we will for sure be in the same A-School class

See you there!

I enlisted, they tried to give me this rate bacause I spent 2 years in college doing studying that exact stuff. But after I took the Asvab they were talking to me about nuc and aecf, so I took aecf instead. MC Still sounds like a sweet rate though!

I'm really excited about this rate. Only thing I see as a possible negative is the fact that I live in Maryland and the A-School is right here in MD. Ship out 11Feb2013 can't wait!
