O yea. And pick a rate (Navy's version of an MOS) that transitions over into a good civilian job. Airdale side has a lot of them.
I think if I like it enough, I'll stay in and make it a career. My girlfriend wants to career in the Air Force or Navy and retire with more years in than her dad had which was 26 years worth. He retired as a Senior Master Sargeant in Combat Communications and he scares the ^*&% out of me.

I got a print out of some different ratings and it shows how they are undermanned/manned adequately/overmanned and the only one undermanned is the AW ratings so the potential for promotions and bonuses come faster.
