    elmonorojo replied to montsamana's topic in Government

    I am going to have to add to what the others have been saying in the sense of being negative - I really wouldn't recommend active duty Navy Nursing to most people. I have been in for over 4 years now and it has been majorly disappointing. I can go in...
