Hi! I got a question about the US Navy. What is a typical day in the Navy on a ship? Also, when one retires from the Navy, do they get free Tricare for the rest of their life or do they have to pay for it at a cheap rate? Is it like getting lifetime, universal health insurance if one can make it to retirement? Thanks!

  1. Mondays are pizza day, if like pizza it's a good day

    Tuesdays are mexican day, like tacos, good to go

    Wednsdays is grill day, ike hamburgers, hotdogs, then your set

    Thursdays is movie day, all the new releases all day

    Friday is g*y pride day, if you are g*y you will love it, if not well

    See it's not bad


  2. Typical day on just about any sea going vessel in the US Navy goes something like this:

    eat, work, eat, work, eat, do PM's, eat, study for quals, eat, sleep, eat, stand watch, eat, do PT, eat, work, eat, work...etc.

  3. lol yeah there are alot of homosexuals in the navy...what do you get when you put 500 sailors on a boat? 250 couples!!

    lol but really Im in the Army and those guys dont do ****...dont worry about it, almost all of navy work is easy.  

    2 exceptions: Navy Seals and Corpsmen....Engineers arent too bad either

  4. first,you should collect some resource  by searching the relevant keyword in search engine,if you got good luck there,then your problem solved.however,if you are not able to find the ideal answer by doing that,here is the resource i recommend.http://health-insurance.onlinebestoffer....

  5. Typical day on a ship depends on what kind of ship and weather or not you're in port. Retiree's don't get free anything, Tricare has different levels and it depends on which one you choose. I do have to admit that tricare benefits are better than any civilian policy I've seen, co-pays are lower and premiums are lower.

  6. It's just like any day anywhere. At sea, you get up, eat, go to work, eat, go back to work, eat, have a small amount to free time to PT, study for qualifications, or simply relax. You'll have duty often where you'll stand a watch, what you do on watch depends on your rate. Then you go to sleep. You may have to wake up to stand watch during the night. And then you start all over again the next day.

    In port or on shore duty things lighten up a bit, but you'll still work and stand watch, those things never go away.

    Tricare is available for retirees but it's not free. On active duty, tricare is free, but after you retire you have to pay for it just like any civilian health insurance. It is MUCH cheaper than most other employee health insurance, and you get to use civilian doctors.
