I actually don't know any divers but I know the rate is hard to get in the first place but you will be in school and other training programs for a good amount of time.
Hey man, I just swore in this week and I got an aircrewman contract, I was suprised to find my ship day is in about 40 days. I am phyiscally prepared for the most part. But i really do not how all of it works. I Know there are rates like AWF AWV AWO, but im confused on how you know/get those rates. Any other tips or advice you have would be great, Thank you!
+Austin Andres When you chose the aircrewman contract you should have already chose which part of the job you were going into like AWF or one of those rates. The job is aircrewman but your rate is another thing so you could call your recruiter and ask him which rate you have and if he doesnt know then just ask him which A school you will be going to because each one is a whole different study of things. My other tips would be to stay mentally prepared more so than anything else. Alot of people give up because they didnt prep before hand. Just know that you can get the training done just like so many other people. Ive seen alot of guys that I misjudged and thought there was no way they could pass yet they are the top students at the time because they were ready for anything. BTW good luck brother. If you have any more questions just let me know.
+NavyLife34 I'm pretty sure when you sign an Aircrew (AIRC) contract, it won't specify a rate. You get that assigned at the end of NACCS. I could be wrong though. I just know that my AIRR contact does not specify AWR/AWS, and that I will choose/assigned the rate after Aviation Rescue Swimmer School.
Great Video,I actually just signed my Diver Contract last week. Do you know any divers or know anything about the rate?Thx

NavyLife34 Is it true that if one is in an aviation rate it's easier to get attached to a squadron/wing in a specific location.
Nicky_Projectz Yes that is true
