About a million dollars, including BUDS - you wont find an accurate answer to this question because there are too many variables involved. This is to produce the basic product.

What are some automatic disqualifications for joining the Navy?
Most are Medical DQ's, but some are related to criminal activity as well. Educational requirements are also a factor, as are substance abuse issues. Age (both young and old), as well as Parental / Dependent status can also be a factor in automatic DQ for service.
Medical DQ's are the most common - if you're in other-than-good health, it's a good bet you might be DQ'd before they let you enlist. Asthma or Reactive Airway Disease is one common DQ, as is Cancer. Vision requirements must also be met for certain rates - for example, you cannot be color blind and work in any Electrical or Electronics rating (you need to be able to see the colors of the wires). This also goes for EOD for obvious reasons.
Age - you must be at least 17 and not older than 34 for Active Duty, 39 for the Reserves. For 17, you need parental permission to join. Medical - Essentially, if you have any serious medical problem, disability, or infectious disease, allergies, etc. it's a no-go. Even then, if it's borderline, the MO can give a thumbs down based on his/her own opinion. The list of questions and DQ's is pretty long - I've added the links to the various pages on Military.com that deal with those questions below.
Height and Weight are factors too.
Drugs and Alcohol - you'll be required to take 2 urinalysis tests, once at the induction station and the other before you report for Boot Camp. If you think you can beat the system, forget it. The military justice system has no sense of humor - you are not subject to the same rights and priviliges you have as a civilian when it comes to infractions.
Legal and Moral Standards - While you can request a waiver for any legal abnomaility (convictions, fines, etc.), essentially what they want is no criminal background, you must be a U.S. Citizen (for most rates - some rates are open to Foreign Nationals, but not many, and only those from U.S. Territories, like Puerto Rico, etc.
Traffic Violations - anything other than minor traffic violations (speeding, etc.) can get you DQ'd. If you have any convictions for anything, forget it without a waiver request.
Education - You must have either a High School Diploma or a GED. While you can be accepted without either, it is extremely rare, and you must score high enough on the ASVAB (military entrance exam) to impress the Navy enough to let you in without one or the other.
Financial Obligations - Financial Debt and Security Clearances are directly related, and the military, and other security agencies that require Background Investigations, see too much debt as a security risk. If you wish to join and your starting pay would be less than you can handle your debt with, it's likely they'd DQ you.
Parental - If you are a Single Parent, you cannot join. The only way you could get around this is if your former spouse or someone else took full legal custody of your kid.
What it boils down to is this - the military wants recruits who are relatively in good health, haven't any major financial obligations, haven't been in trouble, and meet basic educational and citizenship standards. In the past, standards were a lot lower, but things have changed in the past 30 years. The sheer magnitude of complex technology required to run Naval vessels and equipment today require a much higher grade of individual than was previously okay. It's also an investment issue - it costs the Navy a lot of money to train a person in the rate they choose, and they need to make sure they get a good ROI on whoever they let in.
When you finish your Navy enlistment can you then enlist in the Marines?
Pending on how old you are, you should be able to. Might wanna get online and find the nearest Navy recruiters office around you and call them. If anything you might need a waiver from MEPS but i dont think that would be a problem if you were a Marine. Army...might be hard, but Marine...yeah you're set, you're too valuable to the government to not let you re-enlist.
Does a commander outrank a captain?
Commander is only a rank, but yes a commander can be the captain of a ship. However, officers of other ranks can also be the captain of a ship. Vice Versa: A commander could also be a pilot or staff officer or pretty much any other occupation.
How many African American master chief petty officer's in the navy?
You might visit the navy recruiters office and see if he can access Navy Personnel for that info. I retired over twenty years ago and we had several African-American chief petty officers when I was in. I couldn't give you a percentage because I didn't pay much attention to the someone's color or race. I was far more interested in the kind of shipmate a person was. Of those Cheif Petty Officers I know of three that made E-8 and one that made E-9 (Master Chief). Just making Master Chief is pretty rare and quite an accomplishment.
My best guess to that question is "it depends." You have to have resided or had your principal assets in a U.S. district for 91 days, basically, to file bankruptcy in that district. 11 U.S.C. 1408 requires that one live in a district for the greater part of the preceding 180 days in order to file a bankruptcy in that district, though there are some minutia regarding this code section that should be discussed with an attorney. So, if by "living abroad" you mean can someone living in Germany file bankruptcy in the U.S., I would say "yes" if they lived in the U.S. for the greater part of the preceding 180 days, or if their principal assets are in the U.S. But, if their principal assets are in Germany, and more than 91 days have expired since they moved out of the U.S., then I'd say "no." But, if by "living abroad" you mean an American soldier stationed in Germany but who calls Indianapolis home, and who has an Indiana driver's license, etc., then I'd say "yes" since that person's residence is still the U.S. It should also be noted that one must appear at a Meeting of Creditors hearing (also called a "341 hearing"), so living abroad may make this difficult or expensive unless the bankruptcy trustee is willing to do a telephonic hearing. A person does not have to be a citizen of the United States to file bankruptcy here. 11 U.S.C. 109 says "a person that resides or has a domicile, a place of business, or property in the United States, or a municipality, may be a debtor" in bankruptcy in the U.S. Please note that nothing in this posting or in any other posting constitutes legal advice; this is simply my understanding of the facts, which I do not warrant, and I am not suggesting any course of action or inaction to any person.
