Feelings toward Navy: My enlistment was a mistake
It was the Navy I wanted to join;
get some training and make some coin;
said this young man who would have died;
for his country he had so much pride;
you see my father was a Navy man;
with stories of grit, honor, and;
a lovely lass in every foreign land;
So off I went, to the fleet;
little did I know I would meet;
Chiefs and officers filled with hate;
with no consideration for the non-rate;
they thrive on making my life hell;
are we not on the same team? I thought, well;
then why should I work and toil;
when the blacks are treated as royal;
and the women never learn the joy;
of hearing the words 'we will now deploy';
when the newest sailor makes twice the money;
because he has a wife he calls Honey;
and he's given an apartment, well equipped;
while I live in squallor on this stinking ship;
when in chow line for hours I must que;
while the sailors on base eat steak yes they do;
and past me for promotion they go;
give it to the married guy, he needs the dough;
so I changed my attitude with plans to skate;
do as little as possible, just hang out and wait;
until the enlistment period is complete;
then I will simply leave the fleet;
Now I have moved on to live a normal life;
waiting for stability before taking a wife;
with a successful career even though;
the lifer said "if you go;
you will never find meaningful work;
he was wrong, just a jerk;
who was afraid of getting free;
now I'm old and rich with a large family;
who often ask for a Navy story;
so I keep them short, concentrate on the glory;
but when they come to seek advice;
I always tell them at least twice;
the Navy has many dishonorable men;
and If I would never do it again;

Feelings toward Navy: Fuck The Lincoln !
Was on the Lincoln from 2006 to 2009. The biggest mistake I ever made in my life. Had the worst COC on the planet. The Assholes hated everybody and tried to Fuck us every chance they got. Young kids who worked very hard got shit on all the time. Our QMCS was sucking off the ANAV and the Navigator was butt-fucking Him. They only cared about themselves, selfish bastards sre not even ammount to shit out in the civilian world. By the way the Chief master at arms was also a vermin too, making up his own rules that go away from basic human rights. You made our lives a real Hell, but we survived, We Won !!! you Lost !!! You are all just farts in the wind now. Advice to all you assholes: Pray to GOD that we never again cross paths.

Feelings toward Navy: SCREW IT!
I got out three years ago as an EM2(N). I was ADSEP under honorable conditions. As a nuke aboard America's Big Stick, life sucked one way or another: You sucked dick or your life sucked. The COC would continuously put NUB Third Classes (who sucked their COCks) in charge of senior-in-rate 2nd Classes.
My chief, now Senior Chief Shane Mott, was fucking one of my third class petty officers. That's right, Shane! You've been called out, you piece of shit! It's no wonder your wife left you. You are a worthless, lying shit-bag who should be thrown in Leavenworth.
To those PAPERCLIPS still in, fight the good fight. Keep your head down and wait it out.
To the shit-head Chiefs and all the fags sucking their dicks, you should stay in until you get kicked out because you will not find a job in the civilian sector anywhere that I work. I will shred your resume at my kick-ass job and you'll never even get a call telling you to fuck off.
So enjoy your craptastic pay. I make 6 figures now and I get to go home every night to a wife and child. You may think that you won by throwing me out but in reality, you made my greatest dream come true.

the navy is what you make it. concentration camps are what you make it, along with slavery and everything else horrible. the point is, the navy really does suck. it saddens me to be a part of this disgusting organization. you can either sell your sole to pay for college or you can get student loans like everyone else. why is it that only one percent of the nations population serve in the military and they still pay you with penis?

Feelings toward Navy: Confused on What They're Doing.
I won't go far too into my background or anything, but I want to address the advancement issue. Or the lack thereof, to be specific. For some reason, no one is advancing anymore and unlike the Airforce who at least decided to start minimalizing who they let in, they just keep churning kids through boot camp into rates they have no hope of getting promoted in. And it's not like they're churning the cream of the crop, which you think they would start doing. Nope, we're still slapping dixie cups on hoods and soical retards-ready to unleash them on the unsuspecting natives of some host nation, fucking up the world's view of the American military with every breath they take outside of the gates.
The weirdest part about the whole thing is that it's like they're trying to chase you out the moment you leave Great Lakes. I served my first term on a frigate overseas, I came back in because I honestly missed all the crazy shit and good people. Yeah, they're out there. Or they were, they wouldn't allow it anymore. The "Too Much Fun Club" has closed for good.
After they got me back in the system and shipped me off to an overbooked "A" school, I got treated like an animal immediatley because I wasn't a petty officer yet (yup, my first rate was closed by the time I got a rate). But I've noticed this trend since I got back into the fleet...the Navy honestly couldn't give a rat's ass how miserable you are, because they honestly want you to leave. FUN FACT: Did you know if you decide to go UA, they just mail you your seperation paperwork after a month telling you that you got a dishonorable discharge? That's about the littlest shit that I've ever heard given. These are the same people that will ruin a men's lives just to prove a point sometimes. Think about that for a second, for those who are still in or those that remember it clear enough.
The best part is that they think that smashing rates together at random is going to help, as opposed to what it really does which is complicate everyone's job by adding on a whole new list of responsibilies and basically causing an advancement equivelant of a traffic jam.
I'm on a ship with over 2,000 people and last cycle less than 250 people got promoted.
Now my present rate's closed up, I've got a ribbon rack like a cheif. To a certain degree, I don't blame the Navy. I blame myself for being a coward about life and running back to it because I couldn't think of anything better. I didn't give myself enough time to think of anything better.

Feelings toward Navy: Glad i am out
To all,
To those who are still in, hang in there. You may have 6 months or a year left. Please dont rock the boat. Unless you are forced to. Like i was. I was an MA. I came up for PTS, and was informed that the NAVY wanted to retain my services. I already had it in my mind that it was not going to be. I had a meeting with my COC and informed them basically, Thanks, but no thanks. Like a jilted lover, they reacted the only way they knew. It was revenge time. However they did not count on me not backing down. The usual BS ensued. I will not go into specifics, however whatever you guys can think of regarding being fucked with for no good reason, happened. Basically Murphy's Law. This went on for awhile until they backed me into a corner, and i was forced to show them my teeth and claws. In the immortal words of Popeye "Thats all i can stands, I cant stands no more!" The base Chaplin was prior enlisted, and DID NOT like CPO's. Yes the CPO's. Can you guys imagine a NAVY without them. The NAVY functioned just fine without them for approximately 118 years. But on April 1, 1893,(April fools day, how inronic)all that changed, and this putrid association was formed. If i was in charge, and could make some changes, this subversive tribe of cowards would be done away with in the blink of an. Just imagine swatting a fly. That's what i equate them with. Insects. To all still in, you can go to your Chaplin anytime, you dont need permission, or have to write chits to everyone who outranks you, just to speak to another human being. Be warned though, I lucked out, and found an ally who thought the same way i did. Continuing on, i would go to the Chaplin and tells him stories of my Chiefs who were nothing more than playground bullies. Others took my lead. i became a revolutionary figure within the junior ranks. There was an incident where an MAC conducted his own half assed investigation on an MA1. He was so filled with distain for the junior enlisted, that in his own blind hatred and haste, this simpleton forgot to read the MA1 his rights! Not only that it was done in front of a room full of no less than 7 PO1's and other junior people. Smart, real smart asshole. All these stories were making it back to the Chaplin, and he was pissed fucking off! The straw that broke the camel back was this. While waiting to speak to the Chaplin, i was sitting outside his office, and my phone rings. It was from anoth CPO who called to tell me that the CMC wanted to see me in his office in 10 minutes. I informed him that i was with the Chaplin, and as soon as i was done, i would be right there. Timing of what happened next could not have been better. The Chaplin comes out of his office, just as the CPO tells me, "So what your trying to tell is, your with the Chaplin, and you are refusing a direct order to see the CMC?" Where fellow friends did i ever say that i wouldn't go? The Chaplin saw this, and asked me to give him my cellphone. The chaplin went off on the CPO telling him that he was giving me a direct order to ignore the last order given. The chaplin then said, " I tell you what, i'm giving you an order Chief, i want you, and all the other Chiefs in that department in the Captains office in 5 minutes, and as far as the CMC goes, i call himself, and order him there as well." And hung up the phone on the CPO. In the captain's office i told him everything that the CPO's were doing to me personally. The Captain as i was speaking, was listening to everything i had to say, and kept looking at the CPO's with a growing disgust by the second. The Chaplin explained to CO that i was not the only one who was being fucked with. The Captain ordered the SECO to have all junior personnel report to his office one at a time. He wantd to hear more. I was then told to leave by the CO. I left and did not look back. I was told that a Category 5 Hulk-Out took place in the office, and the CO dressed down the CPO's. The CO saved the SECO for last, and i was later told that the CO asked the SECO if he knew what was going on in his cdept. The SECO stated no, he did not. The CO told the SECO, so either you knew and did nothing about this tyrant like behavior from his CPO's or his head was just up his ass the entire time, either way you look like a fucking idiot. After that, and until the time i left the navy, i was never fucked with by the CPO's. I was called to speak with the Chaplin the following day, and was informed the CPO's were longer in my COC. I told you guys this story to tell you this. I have been out for over a year, collecting a very nice penision from the VA for the rest of my life, and i am currently going to college using my Post 9/11 GI BILL which pays me $1881.00 for BAH. I will never forgive or forget those who made my life hell beacuse i simply told them NO. However i have learned for my own health and wellbeing that i must let it go, and try not to carry all that hate around with me. Another thing that helps me is that fact that i am 6'4 and weigh 265 pounds(that's how i got the name Rhino), and that these CPO's would NEVER, and i mean NEVER, talk to or treat me like that if they ever saw me on the streets again, becasue now i am a civillian, and the outcome for them if they were to try it, would not be good for them. I know that stories like this one happens very rarely, but i would like to see more stories of inspiration, and more importantly stories of sticking it up the asses of the CPO's sideways. Thank you fellow PAPERCLIP's, for allowing me to share my story with you.

Feelings toward Navy: Dislike
My story, joined in 1990. signed up for a good "A" school. Navy brat, crossed the T's dotted the I's and signed my contract. Read and reread contract. Day comes to ship to boot camp and now my contract reads "Targeted A School" and not the one I signed. Me being young and dumb starts asking questions. You can get it changed at RTC! So I ship off, my own dumb fault. I get to Great Lakes and ask to get it changed. We'll visit this later. I keep asking. Graduate and wave bye bye to boot camp shipmates. Have my retired pops trying to figure out how to get this changed the whole time. No dice. I go to basic seamanship school. Go home on leave. Continue to force the issue. I ship out for my ship somewhere in the Med/ Red Sea. I sit in Sicily, and bounce from place to place, ship to ship for almost 2 months trying to catch my ship. My old man still continues to dig about original contract. Finally I arrive at ship or it arrives. Go directly to the Captain and get berated about the efforts to get my contract back to original. "If you don't want to be here , then we don't want you!" Ship leaves me in Sicily. I work there for 2 more months. Love it, great place. One day they say , you are headed to Philly. Away I go. I think finally, going to A school. Nope TPA barracks, working parties and a discharge that was at least Honorable. Bus Home. I guess I rocked the boat too much. Waste of 8 months of my life. 2 Bachelor Degrees later, I don't even list the Navy on a resume plus none of the civilian employers even care.

Feelings toward Navy: Hate the Navy more than Captain Planet hates pollution.
Greetings all,
3 things that anger me about the navy:
1)The massive waste of tax dollars spent on pointless, mission-less underway time. As well as the navy's supply system in general.
2)I can't believe people are actually receiving severance pay for getting kicked out of the navy! where the hell do I sign up!?
3)Knowing that they only thing that is guaranteed for me in the navy is that I will be getting paid on the 1st and 15th and there has been a few instances where that didn't happen.

Feelings toward Navy: Disgusted
I have just spent the last 4 years of my life watching people coming into a job, learning to hate that job, being beaten/broken then becomign what they hate. I have also watched people go from peons to minor assistant managers who think they are the captain of the fucking ship or something.
The navy doenst know how to think logically, how to treat its people and ive watched it fuck everyone from an e-1 to higher ups. You can put in YEARs of hard work for the navy and you wont get shit for it outside your GI Bill and VA benifits(That GI Bill is NICE btw). However the Chain of command(COCk) will forget all about that with even the most minor of fuckups.

Feelings toward Navy: Psssh
I am a freshman in college right now, and I'm doing really well. My chief said, "If you get an early out you'll regret it for the rest of your life." So far I don't regret it at all.
The deciding factor involved Kiev, Ukraine. While in the Navy I had a very beautiful, intelligent girlfriend who I met stateside. She was from Moldova, a small country between Ukraine and Romania. I promised her that I would come and see her in Ukraine. We were to meet in Kiev, and then we were to go to Odessa to meet her family. Boy were we in for a shock. My command was dead set against me going.
Before I go on, I want to say this was the point where I figured out how stupid people in the Navy really are. I knew they were stupid, but I didn't think they could be this stupid. Apparently the Soviet Union is still together and Ukraine is still part of it. I guess there was no Referendum and there was no Gorbachev. Apparently there is no difference between Ukraine and Russia, either. That's a crock.
My DIVO, whom we will call NAV, did everything he could to prevent me from going to Ukraine. He continuously sent back my chits saying that I had to re-write them when there was nothing wrong with them. Also, he told our captain that my girlfriend was a mail order bride. First off, she didn't want to ever leave Eastern Europe. That's her home. How many of you would leave the United States and move to another country? Maybe I should not have asked that. Some of you might raise your hands. Canada and Israel seem very attractive to me at the moment. Even after I told my command that this wasn't true, they still believed NAV. After all, he's an officer and a gentleman, and I'm nothing more than a seaman. I guess that automatically makes me a liar.
I would wind up giving into them. I would wind up tearing my flight itinerary and special request chit in half. My girlfriend didn't talk to me for a week because she couldn't stop crying. We broke up shortly after I separated. I can blame that on the Navy one-hundred percent.
There is one person who did a lot to try and help me get to Kiev. ENS K worked really hard to get me the paperwork I needed to go. Unfortunately both of us were being fed misinformation. And I can also thank QMC and QM2 who did everything they could to protect me from NAV. I owe them a lot. I am in their debt.
Eventually I did get to go to Kiev over the summer with my new girlfriend. We had a blast. The city was so rich in culture and history. Nothing NAV said about Ukraine was true. Everything he said was a lie.
Stay true to the cause guys. Fuck the Navy; PAPERCLIP; and all that jazz. Get out, go to college, and earn your bachelor's degree. Don't do that Navy College bullshit. No one who's earned their degree from them has ever impressed me. Very few of the people getting their degrees from there can even write. I don't know how the hell they were able to get a bachelor's degree. Go to a real university and get a real degree. Oh, and by the way, supply department can burn in hell.

Feelings toward Navy: Pure Hate,...
Here is a great conversation starter...
Out of all the BS that you were fed, what was the one lie that really pissed you off the most.
For me, getting told I could go to college on active duty. By the time I got to the fleet, I figured out it was total bullshit. But what killed me was that in my division (M-Div), they would actually let maybe one or two people do it...and they were the biggest shithead, wastes of space. Basically the folks no one missed when out of the plant. As a supervisor (level leader) I would argue with my khaki that we were sending a terrible message to the junior guys, basically advertising that the bigger you were a fuckup, not only did you get less work, you would get rewarded. Then we would have these shitheads able to put down college classes on their brag sheets, potentially improving their chance to advance (though these idiots couldn't place well on the test to save their lives).
I never understood this at all, then and even now...

Feelings toward Navy: i got out
This might sound weird but how many of you don't care about much anymore? Since I got out of the military, I don't know if it's the military or freedom but I haven't really started caring yet. I look at pictures of me before the Navy and it's amazing how beaten down and worn out I look now. I didn't even realize they were trying to destroy my life.
They actually set out on a mission to inflict permanent damage on me for some reason. I guess you have to create tough sailors. You know the drill. They sexually harass your and beat you up. Anyone who thinks that hazing doesn't got on is a retard. They can even haze you with the military authority by making you do facing movements while at attention for hours and hours. I've stood at attention until my body started shaking. Got to love those old racist brown chiefs man. They know how to fuck up a white kids day. He was a homosexual who made advances toward me and when I turned him down he made my life hell. That seems pretty common in the Navy too. That and the raping of women on deployment. It's a pretty sick world on those ships.
I guess I should be glad I got the hell out of that factory. That is pretty much what it is. It's like working in a factory back in 1920. I mean the living conditions are so bad. The worst part is that it didn't even bother me that I slept in a room with 100+ guys and could hear machinery running 24 hours a day.
Another thing that I hated about the Navy is that the culture hasn't evolved with the times. Do I really need to hear "chaps" read a prayer every night? If I am pissed off about how retarded my chain of command is, is the chaplain going to help me?
Why don't they police the out of control black kids the same way they beat down the white kids? Does anyone see how unfair it is when you work on a ship with Filipinos that all speak tagalo and help each other get promoted? If my ship has more minorities then white people, why doesn't equal opportunity do anything to help me out? What about the gays that all help each other out? How can I get promoted when my chief seems to only promote the unmarried and very physically fit men that he happens to hang out with every night?
Another thing that I really hate is how we have to pretend that going on deployment is cool. Anybody who thinks deployment is cool has obviously been on the shore for way to long. Yeah I love not being around girls and working to much. Not to mention the total assholes that you have to be around. I was literally threatened with rape and murder while I was in. In the Navy this isn't even a big deal.
Anyways, whenever I feel sad I just think about how bad I was treated in the military, the long hours, and the terrible living conditions. Then I think to myself, fuck manager of a Burgerking is better then working in that hell hole. I can't even think of anything that I miss besides some of the ethnic girls with huge butts.

Fed Up |
|
Feelings toward Navy: The name says it all.
I've been lied to since the day I joined the navy. I'm in the most unpopular rate (MA), but the dislike directed toward my rate doesn't bother me. It's the fact that I was told I would be doing primarily law enforcement work, and what do I get? I get to be an armed up walmart greeter. "Welcome to NSA Naples, Have a nice day!". Gah...I just joined for law enforcement experience, and the navy failed to provide me with even that. I'm trying to be a civilian Police Officer when I get out, but I've got so little experience. It kind of makes me nervous.
Anyways, I'm on my way out of the navy right now, and the navy even failed me on that. I was supposed to begin terminal leave about a week ago, but I'm still stuck here because lazy-asses don't want to do their jobs. This place feels like purgatory, every day is a waste of my life that I won't get back.
Regarding my time in the navy, one of the first big shocks I had was realizing that I respected officers way more than chiefs. I have yet to have a chief that I respected and/or liked. I had ONE that I was indifferent towards. However, I've had three officers that were really good. It's terrible, because the chiefs SHOULD know better. When an officer doesn't understand where we're coming from, that's because he/she has no way of knowing. But the chiefs have been there! What happened?
I think one of the main problems with the navy, is that they promote those who are selfish. NOT those who look out for their people and get the job done. It doesn't matter if you do your primary duty in the navy. So long as you have collatoral duties, and "volunteer" for things. Also, make sure to take credit for the accomplishments of those underneath you. Finally, it's not even sucking up to people, but if you're the hardest working person in section, but since you're always doing your job you get no face time with the CoC, you're SOL. However, if you're a lazy slob, but get to see the CoC (in a positive manner) on a regular basis, you're going to get a good eval. The best example of this are MA's who work in admin. They have the easiest job, with the best hours and best conditions. HOWEVER, they also manage to get the best evals. Why? Because they are around the CoC. Most of them aren't even trying to suck up either. The best way to fix this would be if the CoC would actually go out and get to know their people. Go to the gates, talk to people during guardmount. See that there's hardworkers out there, the job doesn't just magically get done. There are people out their sweating their asses off doing their job, so that you can sit in your A/C'd office.
I just, I could never see myself staying in the navy as a career. I don't want to become what I despise. I know many of those chiefs/LDO's said the same thing, but they changed. They became what they hated, and I won't do the same. I can't wait to get out of the navy, it's any day now. Good luck to all of you, take everything from the navy that you can. Navy COOL, college classes while you're in. Everything. Because the navy sure enjoys taking everything from you.

I got an ELS back in 1996 from Great Mistakes. I dropped out of college to go and sea the world. I had flat feet they missed that at MEPS. But I got an ELS and was sent home. It was only for a few weeks and it sucked. It did not stop me from getting 2 college degrees owning two companies that I made a lot of money with and now I own my own private equity fund out of West Palm Beach, FL. Before I got discharged I can recall them all saying to me you will never make anything of your life, you a loser your this and your that. FUCK THEM. Military life is not for everybody.

Wow I guess this site has been going on for quite some time now, even before my time (Aug'01-Feb'08). If only I knew about this site back then during my time in DEP back in 2000 teehee. Anyway, all that was mentioned on previous posts are spot on and right on the mark. I sympathize with my fellow vets who had to endure all that BS from the fleet. Not to beat a dead horse, but for those who are counting down the days with the "EAOS Tracker" (do they still have that around? lol), stay strong, your moment will come. Then enjoy the benefits of being a veteran afterwards. Bottom line: the navy sucks, always has, and always will.

Probably the longest 5 years of my life. 2 deployments to the gulf to sit and do circles all day everyday. Hoping that the carrier would just pull in to Bahrain. Because thats really the only place to go. Then a Baltops deployment 3 months after our second 7 month deployment. Oh and on top of that we come back and I get to do 22 months in Afghanistan.
The entire time has been straight fuckery. Fuck you Navy. The only good thing you ever did for me was approve my early out chit. But i'm so happy that our command NCC sat on the chit for 2 months. Thats ok I know your a useless female and because your a female its ok to be a useless cunt in the Navy. Playing the game is nothing new, I went ahead and did your only job and made all the calls myself because your to much of a lazy cunt to forward some goddamn e-mails.
25 days motha fuckas. Eat shit and die.

Feelings toward Navy: Leave my kids alone
I got out of the Navy in 1992. I had nightmares for almost 5 years. I went to college and got a job, and I am retiring from that job in 3 months at the age of 43, I will get $30,000 a year for 15 years of service. (The same retirement that I would get, had I stayed in and made Senior Chief. Only, I have been sleeping at home for the last 19 years)
I did all I could to forget all about the Navy, until the recruiters started sniffing around my kids in 2005. The nightmares returned. I managed to keep my kids away from the service, and both have since finished college.
Now I am going back to school to get a Masters degree, and I will start on my next career. My biggest regret in life is the 6 years that I wasted in the Navy. I have made it my personal mission to talk as many young people as I can out of joining.
