Comment by Pat on November 5, 2011 at 9:34pm Hello, my daughter has been an IT for 4 1/2 yrs & was stationed at NIOC in Kunia, Hawaii for 3 yrs & is currently GSA to Djibouti in the Horn of Africa for a few more months.
Welcome to the IT group. My son has been in Pensacola since early May. Hope your son enjoys it also.
Comment by Kevin W Owens on August 21, 2011 at 9:30am My son Justin is arriving in Pensacola today, he is very excited to start his new adventure in life.
Comment by Craig on December 30, 2010 at 3:16pm Tim, here is the offical message from the Navy that establishes the Information Systems Technician Sumarines (ITS) rating. Even though the message says they are only taking E4-E6's, they have to begin the process to backfill those that will be lost through attrition. He might just fit into the window for this new rating.

Comment by Craig on December 29, 2010 at 10:45pm Tim,
They just recently approve a new IT rating. If your son can handle submarine duty, then this rating is for him. He will make rate extremely quick, because it's brand new. Let me see if I can find some info on it. It was just released yesterday....
Comment by Craig on December 18, 2010 at 9:45pm Tim, these other fathers can tell you that info about IT. My expertise is with General Navy stuff, and any CT rating questions.
If you look above in the discussion area, you will see "What does the IT rating do? ~~~ Offical Navy info sheet....", that is petty accurate concerning the IT rating.
Your son should realise that the new "IT of the Future" program will be in full swing when he DEPs in. He really needs to read this He also needs to understand that will will probably need to obligate for 6 years.

If your son needs any guidance concerning the Navy, have him stop by NavyDEP.com I work with alot of deppers, my current active duty come back and pass advise to the newbies.
Comment by Craig on December 18, 2010 at 12:02am Tim,
The AFQT really doesn't mean much, it is only used to see if a person is qualified to enter the Navy. The minimum score is 35, but they have raised it temporary to 50, since so many recruits are coming in.
But for the IT rating your son needs the following scores:
AR + (2*MK)+GS =222
or
AR + MK + EI + GS =222
Here is a meaning of those letters:


Check out the Bravo Zulu! USS Bainbridge blog and watch the must see video about the Bainbridge.
