When can a reservist command an active duty member?

Whatever rank you hold as a reservist is recognised as such within the entire military. A reservist Sergeant outranks an active Corporal. However, there is a saying within the military - "stay in your lane". If the active soldier is not the jurisdiction of the reservist, then that reservist has no business getting in that regular's face and barking orders at them.

What happens if you enlisted in the navy and get your girlfriend pregnant a few months before boot camp?

Since you're not married, nothing - the military isn't interested in girlfriends, boyfriends, their kids, or anything other than legal dependents for benefits and contract purposes. In other words, the Navy doesn't care if sailors have a girl in every port, or even if each one has one or more kids, but they're only going to give you benefits for any that you're legally responsible for via some type of valid marriage.

If you do get married, it will alter the circumstances of your enlistment contract, and any new dependents will have to be noted and documented before you actually become active duty, so if you do become legally married, make sure you let your recruiter know about it.

Was Robert Kennedy part of the military?

Yes - unlike his brothers, Robert Kennedy initially enlisted in the Naval Reserve as an Apprentice Seaman in 1944 (inactive). He was released to attend the Navy's V-12 College Training Program, which was instituted to augment the Navy's commissioned officer ranks.

While in the program at Harvard, the Navy commissioned the Destroyer USS Joseph P. Kennedy, named for his father. He requested, and was released from the V-12 program, to serve as an Apprentice Seaman aboard that ship. He was honorably discharged on May 30, 1946.

How many Vietnamese boat people were rescued at sea by the US Navy?

The most spectacular rescues where when South Vietnamese military airmen flew their families out to sea and tried to land on USN Aircraft Carriers. USN Aircraft Carrier Commanders actually dumped multi-million dollar aircraft INTO THE SEA in order to make room on their flight decks for the incoming South Vietnamese Aircraft.

The boat people came a couple of years later, and those figures will mostly be estimates; as many of those folks are suspected of being lost at sea, and the rest are suspected of "having made it" to some safe landing.

What is the nickname of a Navy Seal?

If you were the prosecutor what arguments would you make to police chiefs regarding a policy of careful screening of cases soon after arrest?

Although law enforcement agencies can, and do, routinely review officers cases, it is primarily for "quality control" and training purposes, in order to determine if the officers actions were proper, correct, and in accordance with the agency's guidelines. It is not the function of the agency to pass judgment on whether the arrest should have been carried out or not, that is the function of another branch of the criminal justice system.

Once an arrest has been carried out it is not within the Chief's powers to "un-arrest" someone. The arrest stands entirely on the training, knowledge, observation, and investigation of the arresting officer. Only when the case is presented to the prosecutor's office can a determination be made that sufficient probable cause to arrest did, or did not, exist. If not, it is the function of the prosecutor's office to decline to prosecute and Nolle Prosse the case.

What is the Navy MOOTW?

Military Operations Other Than War (MOOTW) essentially comprise those operations which are of a humanitarian nature. For the Navy, it usually involves aerial delivery of critical supplies and water (carriers can produce about 80,000 gallons of fresh water daily), and can also provide power if civilian generating plants are offline. What isn't readily known is that nuclear powered vessels have the capability of reversing their output to shore to generate electricity, enough to power a small city.

Can a navy E7 with 16 years of service join the army?

If you have an occupation which translates directly to an Army MOS, it may be possible, although, at least in the Army, after 15 years you get an indefinite enlistment, so I'm not sure how that might affect things.

Also, the circumstances surrounding one's discharge from the Navy would play a role. If you had an RE-4 reentry code on your DD-214, you can probably forget about it. If you've already filed for retirement from the Navy, that'll cause other complications.

Again, if you're interested in doing this, you need to speak to an Army recruiter if your interest is in the Regular Army or Army Reserve, or else a National Guard recruiter if your interest is in that component.

How do you dress for a Navy wedding?

Well i personally think you should get a navy dress and add a bit of sparkle to it maybe a sparkle bag or headband.

In the navy do you get to pick what job you do?

Within certain limits you get to express your interests. The prime directive of personnel is that "The needs of the Navy come first." Which means that if they need 3,000 radio operators and you show an aptitude, you will be assigned as a radio operator.

However, you may request an MOS change at a later time which may or may not be granted. If your recruiter promised a particular job, be sure that you have the assignment in writing BEFORE you sign up. Once you sign on that dotted line, your body belongs to the Navy and your personal wishes might or might not be considered.

The Navy is a good career and I loved it. But be aware before you sign anything that you have volunteered to be a fighting (wo)man and that is the Navy's first priority, to man the fleet. Ask questions, be informed and sign up with your eyes open.
