Submarine Letter

[The_Rorschach]

Look, no offense, but the Navy doesn't operate like that. For one thing, you need a BA or better degree in order to qualify as Officer material. Second, you need to successfully complete Bootcamp (which, I'm sad to say, I greatly doubt you could do without FEP fatass) and then be nominated for OCS by your immediate chain of command whilst attending A-School.

Of course, then you would have to serve a decade or so, illustrating your leadership skills and potential, survive a single scope background investigation, and possibly you might be one of the few Submarine Commanders out there.

Not even a letter from the president would get you that post any quicker

But what I find absolutely enthralling is the possibility that, in order to make his enlistment quota, some recruiter absolutely postively convinced that he could make it happen, and managed to take you in so thoroughly that you remain convinced to this day. . .Which is why I say proudly -HOORAH NAVY!

One of these posts isn't like the other. . .One of these posts just is not the same. I mean, was the letter generic, or from you uncle? OR DID IT EVER EXIST AT ALL?!!? Mystery!

It was a generic mail letter. I stated that before. And yes, a roomate did throw it out. Would you like me to call you so you can get first hand accounts, Max.

I had an offer from one of my uncle's old friends in the Navy to join up and be able to work in one of the nuclear submarines based on my degree field and the activities I have done in my community. I had it, this board gave me shit because it is full of idiots and losers (for confirmation, look at the pictures page of this message board), I wanted to scan my letter but I had left it on my table and my dumbfuck former roomate threw it out and a lot more of my papers when he decided to move out just to be a prick.
