Please don't over think this question and get offended......I am currently active duty in the NAVY and I love the military to death

I just hate the BS I have to deal with in the NAVY. My EOS date is coming up soon and I want to join another branch.

I want to know which branch 'gets down to business', and by that I mean which branch works the hardest, PT alot, always mission ready etc

The NAVY is very relaxed now, its so relaxed that you don't even have to show up to PT. I am the type of guy that loves to be on the battlefield defending the USA.....not doing 'field day' on a naval ship.

So what branch do you think I would love?.....MARINES, ARMY or Air Force????

And which one do you think does the least work......in my opinion it would be the NAVY except for SWCC and aviation personnel because they are committed

I will not address most of your ranting but............with the AF and Marines accepting almost no one that is prior service,even those from their own service, your best bet is the Army through the "Blue to Green" program.



See your CCC to get the paperwork started before your EOS.

Yeah, why don't you get off your soap box and lets reevaluate the sailor shall we. YOU volunteered for the Navy, knowing you were going to be on a ship. This isn't 1940, you knew very well the likelihood of you seeing combat on a ship or even in the Navy is overall slim to zero. Now, since you conveniently did not mention your rate, (however I'm sensing your a SWCC failure who was placed in aviation) this cannot be determined. Lets face it, your problems right now are all because of yourself and you're pathetically attempting to blame the Navy.



Now, this relaxation of the Navy as you call it, provides you opportunity. You have the opportunity to be the one who shows up to PT, who grabs the bull by the horns and get that Early Promote. Be the one who is asked to quality check other peoples work because you're on the up and up.



Other services are just as bad by the way, trust me I've had the honored to serve with them. And if you think the Navy is bad, join the Air Force and you stand the chance of being addressed by your first name by all ranks. That leaves you with the Army and the Marines, and it will take you a while to get rid of all the idiots in the Army. Leaving you with the Marines, who my buddy is reporting they got soft too with the weak economy. Bunch of straight A softies, perfectly qualified joined and were a bunch of pansies.



So after serving at a Joint Command and with NATO, I'm seeing a problem with you the sailor. See your CCC about changing rates since you seem disgruntled in your own, changing services, or in your case, may want to consider getting out.



(And oh by the way, everyone does field day. Even on the battlefield, I've seen Colonels pick up mop and broom, and assist in cleaning)

There is no such thing as a specific branch that is more gay friendly than another. It's like asking which branch is more female friendly, more straight friendly or more friendly to non-whites. Even though DADT (Don't Ask, Don't Tell) is still military policy, it is up to each individual command's determination of how gay-friendly they choose to be/choose not to be. This inconsistent is one of the big reasons there's no uniformity in DADT: Command A may not care whether you're gay as long as you do your job well Command B will kick you out on suspicion/rumor of you being gay. And since you are never in the same place for over 2-3yrs & commanders change every 2-3 yrs, what was ok during your old commander may not be the case when your new commander comes in.

Every service has high action jobs and pogue jobs. I would suggest trying to cross train into a different career before switching services, as your rank may not carry over. I don't know how easy it is to go get into a different career field in the USN (I'm Air Force). If you really want to be a high-speed sailor, so research until you know specifically what you want to end up doing and find jobs that fit that and need people. If you do decide to go Air Force, it sounds like you want to be something like TACP, SERE, Para-rescue, or Combat Controller. A small percentage of Security Forces (Police/Base Security) get to do really awesome missions, but most of them are hyped up security guards. (I am SF, and I hate some of the attitudes I see sometimes)

Pssssst! NEWSFLASH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! For you....everything you do in life demands a certain amount of putting up with "BS."



So you might want to get use to it now, while your young.



BTW, What do you mean by the "gayest?"



Are you looking for someone special? Or are you one of those homophobe's who actually think a gay person might hit up on you?
