Grumbler was a Commander?

I had no idea.  For some reason I thought he was enlisted.

Me too.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

A canter down some dark defile

Actually the pay is very good, particularly if you adjust for the different tax treatments.  My adjusted pay is equal to $83,000 in the civilian sector, and this of course does not count healthcare and retirement benefits.  Plus I qualify for some other benefits such as a $300 per month childcare subsidy, etc.

How many years of experience to get that?

I got 19 years in the service.

What do you mean by that?

That he is way too smart to be an enlisted subhuman like us?

As far as I know, grumbler is the ranking officer on the board (USN Commander)

I'll be leaving in the fall as an E-6 (Petty Officer First Class)
My new rank will be "Mr."

Damn, it took you 20 years to get E-6?

The Navy definitively sucks.

I got that in the Army in 4 and some change.

Pretty sure AC is around 10 years TIS (maybe less)

I doubt I'll get E-6 this year (It'll be close, though, I think), but a good shot next year, which will be just shy of 7.

But it's fairly well known that the Army promotes pretty damned quickly.  Heck, I think there was a short time that I out-ranked you.  :P

Ank has not been in that long. In the reserves it takes forever and a day to advance, not so on active duty.

Yeah,  but the reserves and national guard have dubious promotion practices.
