Advancement

Blogged in Cool Stuff, Navy by Tyler on November 25, 2007 at about 22:55

I got some great news this week - I’m being advanced to Electronics Technician Second Class (aka ET2, pay grade E-5), the equivalent to a sergeant in the Army or Marine Corps. Having only been in the Navy for a little more than a year and a half (’since breakfast’ in Navy jargon), I’m quite pleased to be advanced as quickly as I have been.

In related news, my brother Jacob was recently advanced to the rank of Staff Sergeant in the Army (pay grade E-6).  Congratulations Jake!

The deployment is going well so far, and I’ll be home for Christmas, so I’m excited to see you all soon!
