Or, you could just buy the book.

Unless you'd rather put your life in danger.

People's life are always at risk i don't see why is it that people think that once you join the armed forces your going to die or something

Hi,

The armed forces may be having good projects.
But you can get better projects elsewhere too.

I doubt that technical division of navy will be in high risk environment.
But you will have the satisfaction that you are working for your country.

At the end of the day, job satisfaction is what that matters.

Thats what i was thinking about. It can't be that bad although your always a soldier first before your career.

Yes peoples lives are always at risk but sometimes the risk is higher than need be..

Join the Navy because you want to join the Navy not because of a perceived notion that the electronics courses are good. I've read that book. It's not terrible impressive. I've talked to people who have gone through the coursework, not impressive either.

I wouldn't join the Navy because of a notion. I would join the Navy for an education which is my priority. Ohh and by the way, what book are you guys talking about

I don't know the title, but I've seen it plenty of times at the bookstore...It says it's the same book used for the Navy's course in electronics.
