    I've been thinking of joining the Navy Nurse Corps, but through research I got a little confused. Is there a difference between the Navy Nurse Corps and the Navy Reserve Nurse Corps? When I join would i be a Naval Officer or Navy reserve Officer.

    Yes -- the difference is that one is active duty (i.e., your full-time job), the other as part of the reserves.
  5. does anyone know of any good questions I should ask the recruiter? I meet with him in a few days and I feel a bit naive! I am married and have a 3 year old so naturally I worry about deployment...people are telling me not to believe recruiters...can anyone shed some light onto this subject please?btw I am looking into joining Navy to be a nurse! Thanks
