Answer 1

They just go on cruises and take liberties when ever they can!

Answer 2

Hey how are you? If you're a smart person and would like to take advantage of the Navy ratings (jobs) then you would like to look into the ATF (Advanced Technical Field) which mainly is say linguists jobs, intelligence jobs, engineering jobs such as NUKE, or computer field AECF (Advanced Electronics Computer Field)....there is a lot.

If you want something more adventurous perhaps you would like to be a pilot in the Navy or a rescue swimmer.
