Craig replied to glenn sampson's discussion Reclassification and Captain's Mast"Glenn, how long was his UA? minutes, hours, days, weeks?
What was the reason for the UA?
Depending on the information, usually they will send him out to the fleet under the PACT program. Yea, you said he is a BM, which is basically PACT.…"

Craig commented on Tony's group Navy Cryptology"Jack, NATTC is where a 6 year CTT's & CTM's will go to learn basic electronics. NATTC is located at NAS Pensacola (about 5 mile up the road from Corry). Once he's done, he will move to Corry.
If I were him, I…"
Craig commented on Tony's group Navy Cryptology"Jack - It depends on if he's a 4 year CTT or a 6 year CTT. Corry Station and Naval Air Technical Training Center (NATTC) are completely different.
Either way he won't be trained in a temporary rating it cost too much. He will…"

Craig replied to Dexter Mullins's discussion Tiger Cruise program"Michelerenee - Just curious, where did you learn about OPSEC? I've been doing this stuff for 32 years and I guess you've been reading from a totally different instruction manual that me.

Craig I was told by Paul you might have some info I could use and to contact you. My son signed up for a 6yr CTT and is at Corry Station. He recently got a UA and went to captain's mast and was declassified so I was wondering if you could tell me if it is normal to be reclassified as a BM right away or if they would keep him declassified? Also if he is just declassified who should he talk to or what should he do to have the best chance to get reclassified. He says he did not lose his security clearance, if that makes a difference. Any info would be helpful. Thanks Glenn Sampson
