I was a Boats for 5 years and it was the best experience that ive ever had and i will never forget it. It takes alot of mental power to be out to sea for 9 months with one or two ports. Godbless the navy for the hard work they do.

If You or a family member is considering going in the navy and you want a non bs answer of what its like please feel free to give me a pm.

We used to shoot ***** off the fantail of our little DDG, which oiler are you refueling from? USNS isnt it?

As far as what does a naval officer do?

Depends on how high in the chain of command you are and how good your CPO s and LPO s are that work for you - if they dont do their job you do a lot.

that a woman firing that m 14 with the shot line?

must be the new navy - that must suck

What exactly does a typical Navy officer do? Not being a smartass, just genuinely curious.

If you are talking junior officers, basically they screw things up so that the Chief has to fix them. :)

Seriously though, depends on what the career path is. A line officer usually moves around to different departments on the ship. Might spend a year in engineering, a year in operations, and a year in weapons learning all of those areas in preparation for more senior positions eventually.

A LDO (limited duty officer) concentrates more on a single area. For example, my boss on the Iowa was a career Intel officer, and thats all he ever did.

    • Me and you clearly have different definitions of production. If you remove the 2023 season where Thielen had just over 1k yards he is 43rd on our all time receivers list just ahead of Jonathan Mingo. And before you ask why would we remove that season? Well a couple reasons. For one thing we won a whopping 2 games. And for the biggest. Thielen was 14th in targets in 2023. We absolutely force fed him the ball all season and finished with the 32nd passing offense. For comparison sake 33 year old Jerricho Cotchery eclipsed over 1k total yards in just 2 more games and with 67 less targets than Thielen did in that 2023 season. He has above average hands. That's it. We overpaid him because we were desperate and overvalued him. That's the reality no matter how many times you or anyone else wants to quote me and get defensive about it.
    • He's played great and it was a win-win (rare free agent) for both parties.  One of the points is he hasn't made enough difference to "waste" 35 million on. Another point is by the time Panthers are hitting their prime, he would have taken snaps away from young WRs/TEs/RBs. "Thus" in the long term, hurting the teams new future "window."  But I dare think of the monkey poo of a offense the Panthers had without him the past 2 years. Lack of talent leads to many problems, including paying a 35 year old to be somewhat respectable. Hes one of few that cared enough and made a effort. Plus you know he's done great stuff in many other ways for the team, community juggernaut, leadership, etc.  Judgement is for AT and his 3 year panther career!!
    • But it has gotten a little wacky. RBs-https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/contracts/_/position/rb     A couple months ago iggles made Bark the highest guaranteed RB, jeanty was until then. That's what matters the guarantee. A rookie never played a down was the leader, until iggles howie made things right.  If a safety gets drafted in the top 8 or so, he would have the highest money too or very close to it.    Add in TEs and C too.    Even with the fixed %, the numbers are getting too much for a player that's not proven themselves.     Plus anytime a QB is drafted it screws up the contracts for players around and if next year a punter gets drafted at the same 90th spot, they want the same contract with the 5.7% increase. Teams would be laughing.    Its just reached this point. Another 10 years and I bet the vets will be crying.
