I think the navy has one of the scariest jobs in battle. You are at the absolute mercy of your CO.

10 years in the Navy. Half on the surface (targets), and half on subs. We had far more than just General Quarters. There were fire, repel boarders, flooding, collision, torpedo, weapon spills, oil spills, nuclear spills, reactor scrams, electrical outage, etc. . So many drills that I learned to wake up long enough to hear what the drill was and go back to sleep if I did not need to be someplace. However, the food on the sub Was the Best!

The time it takes a military unit to go from peace time operations to full out combat and launching weapons is something many people don't take into consideration. The Army and Marines take days, the Air Force takes hours...the Navy gets less than 10 minutes to go to full battle stations.

I tried the marine reserves for officer’s training in college. Then subsequently I enlisted in the navy as a submarine quartermaster, a discontinued rate now that QMs are strictly skimmer pukes. Then I became a merchant seaman for Desert Storm. The merchant marine was the most fun. I was on a prepositioning ship in the Mediterranean which was the cat’s pajamas. We got liberty every weekend and every port had both a casino and a whore house. Our liberty ports were Rota, Malaga, Cartagena, Barcelona, and Palma de Majorca in Spain, and then Nice, Toulon, Marseilles and Villefranche in France, and then Naples, Gaeta and Livorno in Italy. And of course the British crown colony of Gibraltar. Also got flown out to Singapore to reflag a Panamanian car carrier to USA and took it through Suez to the North Atlantic, and so forth. Also worked on the Great Lakes which was the absolute pits. After all I’m from Cleveland and can do without the Cuyahoga River which caught on fire in 1969. If you go canoeing on the Cuyahoga you get treated to paddling by drowned rats and used condoms.

We are a maritime nation, always have been and dependent on the maintenance of sea routes for commerce. The Congress early on in the history of our country stated that they would never maintain a standing Army but would always fund and maintain a Navy. Essential to the survival of our nation. Having an Army or Air Force does nothing for you if you can't sustain it where ever it might find itself. Sea power is the only answer to this global question. In a light hearted manner some view the Navy as more avaunt guard as we boat around the world continually demonstrating to the world the commitment the US has in its place among the nations.

I was in the Coast Guard 1980-84. Home port, Charleston Navy Base. In peace time I thought we had the best duty. We spent several months rescuing wet Cubans and giving them a free ride to Miami. Then we hunted down and seized numerous drug boats coming out of Central and South America. We were fired upon, but it was amazing how fast they lose the will to fight when you put one or two 40mm HE rounds into their engine room or into their cabin. We had a 350 ft banana freighter with about 80 tons of pot on board try lo ram us while launching one of our incident boats. We were able to back out of the way so they pulled a flange from the sea chest trying to shuttle. We were able to put a few pt50 pumps aboard and pump the engine room down from 4 ft to where the pumps were looking for water and we could replace the flange. By then their motors were toast so we had to tow it a couple days to Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale. Every patrol we got to visit the Bacardi...er... I mean refuel in San Juan with overnight liberty mid patrol and each patrol we hopped to a different island in the Caribbean. every time we returned to Chas. All the destroyers we left behind 5 weeks earlier were all still sitting at the pier. You would have thunk they were buildings that never moved. Occasionally one or two would go out and return a few days or a week later. One day in Port, after quarters when all the officers and chiefs except the OOD were ashore, I called a new guy standing watch on the quarterback and told him to have Seaman Stains lay to first class berthing. Then I stepped out on the bridgewing. I could hear all the sailors over on the destroyer Dayo erupt in laughter when that went over the 1MC. Our crew got along great with many of the tin can sailors. It was a few of the base personnel who for whatever reason didn't like the coasties. I Guess the guys on the destroyers realized that our experiences were very similar. Especially since our cutter was former navy, commissioned from the MARAD fleet and painted white.

I spent 8 years in the navy and loved it I was in the navy air force spent 2 years in Hawaii 2 years in Georgia 3 years aboard a carrier and 1 year in Florida my carrier duty was the best of all. Went to Africa Saudi Arabia Crossed the equator Japan,PI, Hong Kong, A lot more places I would never have been able to see all these places if it was not for the navy.

I was in the Royal Navy in the 80's and my ship HMS Coventry was sunk by the Argies, I was most certainly being shot at, and I didn't like it.

Loved my Navy time, USS Peleliu LHA-5 and MDSU-1 Det-1. Like everything there were miserable times but there were far more great times. Department of the Navy has the best class A’s (Marine Blues #1 and Crackerjacks #2). A good 93% of Navy commands are at piers, so you are gonna have beaches; and the Navy is so awesome we even take about drinking in our hymn. A lot of tradition in the Navy, I miss it.

You make many good points, as a Vietnam Vet of the U.S. Navy, I often heard complaints from other branches, yes we had three hot meals and a cot, but you can't get seasick onshore. I served on a destroyer that was built at the end of WW II and there were times when we were in rough seas, the ship was rolling and pitching violently and sometimes the bow (the front end of the ship) would be completely underwater to a moment when you had to plow through a large swell.

You had it rough on those old tin cans! You still literally"heaved out and triced up"! Didn't you? I was on USS Constellation CV64 and USS Boxer LHD4. We had coffin racks your bunk flipped open and your locker was there We had our own air Dept. Berthing with a head and showers. Luxurious compared to the old tin cans!! Did you have air conditioning? I bet it was hot as hell in the Tonkin Gulf! I was an ABH3 V1 Div crash and smash! On both. Take care shipmate!

@@thomasnikkola5600 You're right, we had the old canvas strung racks on the tin can I was on. As for air conditioning, we had a unit in your compartment and it kept it cool, that is when it was working, but when it wasn't, the berthing compartment was stifling hot. When this happened, if the weather was calm, I usually went up to the focsle to sleep, that is when I didn't have the mid-watch or the early watch. This was especially nice when we were off the coast of the Philippines. As for the Tonkin Gulf, I'm afraid I never made it up there, my Vietnam experience was during Operation Frequent Wind (the evacuation of Saigon) and the Mayaguez Incident in 1975. However, when I joined my reserve command, the U.S.S. Talure (LKA-112), we had the coffin racks as you did and we also our own shower/head. By the way, I was a boats'n-mate and I enjoyed the rating.

Water hours and Navy showers.....Bravo Zulu ! :)

We loved to fuck with the Navy. But at the end of the day they are a vital part of Marine success. One of my best friends was a Corpsman. I personally saw him run through a mine field while he was wounded himself. To save another buddy of mines life who had just lost a leg from one of those mines. I just had my bell rung but wasn’t bleeding and he performed better than me that day. He passed away a few years ago but he’ll always be my brother. RIP Doc Everett.

Man overboard drills on a ship in port being decommissioned just before chow or a drill just before or during your rack time

My uncles were in different branches of the military during WWII. Two were Navy, One in Marines and another was in the Army but with the special services in occupied France. The last was on his third deployment and was never heard from again. Later the family got a letter stating he was missing and presumed captured. The Marine was on land for the most part and seemed in awe of the Navy guys. You guys get hit with bombs or torpedoes your ship goes down. You could be trapped inside or die on a raft floating around for weeks. The Navy guys said, yes but you have to hold a position while getting shelled by artillery fire..we can move around in an area. Marine said, you are trapped inside a tin can floating om the water. Navy....you have to be in the rain, snow, whatever for days. We have to also , but do come inside for hot food and drink at the end of watch. My whole reason for this is that EVERY branch has it's ups and downs. Every branch has it's heroic and dedicated people. As the man said check out history and when a Navy ship goes down many, many people die because they are clustered TOGETHER in their "tin cans ". And NO one mentioned the missing cousin.. because no one knew what he did nor did they know where he was. Don't know what was worse. It was WAR!!

Yeah it’s to be funny about it and talk about it in the description.

There is BIG Navy and then there are all the communities within the Navy. It is much different being on a small ship vs a carrier. Carriers have a lot more amenities onboard that small ships do not have room for. The other branches, except the Coasties, have no idea what it is like to go through a big storm at sea...especially on a cruiser or destroyer. Then you have the crypto community. Many of them never go on a ship. Finally, the Navy and Chair Force have much better training than others. Oh, they walk and the Navy rides.

Matt Dan While most sailors will not be expected to deploy on land in a war zone, it would be far from accurate to state that no sailor has ever had to deal with the aforementioned conditions. Hospital Corpsman, Seabeas, (Occasionally GMS) and especially ordinance disposal have been, and are deployed along side Marine and army units in order to fill combat support roles, especially clearing and disarming IEDs. The fleet also has on very rare occasions been shot at, though I will not claim these are on the same scale or intensity as current ground warfare operations. The most recent example was in 2016, when Yemeni rebels engaged in an exchange of fire between four destroyers. The USS Nitz, USS Mason, USS Ponce, and the USS San Antonio respectively. Luckily, all enemy missiles were shot down, and no casualties or damage was incurred among the ships. Than there are of course, the Horn of Africa engagements, but these actions have been remarkably one sided, and have resulted in no fatal US casualties so far, the Syrian intervention, which again has been very one sided with strikes only being launched by express order of the President, and the sea phase of the Iraq wars. The first of which resulted in the last major fleet action in the Persian gulf (the very one sided battle of Bubiyan) and the second of which saw extensive mine warfare by the navy, heavy fighting over oil platforms, and a blockade of the Iraqi coast that actually did result in fatal US Navy casualties.

What they don't tell you about the Navy at the recruiters office is that while aboard ship, you will probably be standing watches all hours of the day and night, doing underway replenishments at sea at night, be stuck aboard ship after "knock off" with nowhere to go beacause you are at sea and live through endless ridiculous personnel inspections, inport and while at sea

Any Marine who ever served in an MAU now MEU has great respect for the Navy. I served aboard the USS Manitowoc during the MARG 1-86 Med float and we made it everywhere we were destined to go and came home safe courtesy of the United States Navy.

And of course there's the fact that we look magnificent in our Crackerjack's...

I would add being expected to do your daily duties while bobbing around seasick on a Destroyer taking 40 degree rolls, and the fact that Navy units often operate alone, with no QRF just over the horizon to come to the rescue if you get in a jam. In fact, the nearest help may be hundreds of miles away, and one hit or one person screwing up can take out the entire ship. Nowhere to run to, no cover to hide behind, and even if you do survive a sinking you have schools of hungry sharks waiting to make you a Happy Meal.

i never understood their rank structure and everyone one i see wears a different uniform from other branch what’s up with that?

Hate them we can do. But hey. A sailor life is just as shits as grunts life. I joined the Marines and are shipping to boots on February 2nd.

I loved four meals a day, my own air conditioned rack ...

Old school Navy...1979 to 1988. MA1. Trust me folks. Those deployments are not pleasure cruises. Plus, the Navy deploys more than any other branch of service.

Back in the early 80's I was with 3rd Bn, 11th Marines, an artillery unit. We had towed 105's and 155's. I went to the battalion aid station (our medics are Navy) for some complaint and the Docs had a big poster of one of the Iowa class battleships firing a full broadside with all nine guns. The caption said: "all of the big guns are in the Navy". Touche' Navy, touche'.
