So, ya know, probability of striking nuke is somewhere between 0 and 100 percent.

I would imagine, however, that intel/crypto is going to be really really low in the chances of that happening for two reasons. 1) Security and 2) opportunity. Intel/Crypto do not do a lot of at-sea sea duty, so finding an opportunity to strike with them is going to be slim. Though please correct me if I am wrong CTT1 Griffin or other CTs.

Submarine is going to be a negative. Except for nukes who are automatically allowed on subs, everyone has to go through sub school.

HM on the other hand would be a lot more likely. Ships have a medical officer, so striking with them would be like being their assistant for a few days.


As an IS we do have sea duty billets. You can go on carriers which is not uncommon. But there are ways around that you can get squadron duty, or go 3912 which is ground and never go to "sea" also certain locations are considered sea duty like Bahrain. But also our rate is more of a CONOUS/OCONUS rotation more than just sea/shore. You can always get attached as well which isn't uncommon.

^^^Yup!

mb11g, hit up LTJG Guppy to get your account verified as active duty. It helps the deppers know the difference between those in the Fleet and those waiting to join.
