Greetings, sailors. I am a prior svc jarhead and am entering the Navy Reserve as an IS. I was hoping somebody could shed some light on how the school is for a prior as opposed to a fresh-from-boot sailor (as far as berthing, restrictions, liberty, expectations, etc.).

Thanks!

Probably the same amount of liberty, but less restrictions. Your expectations will be higher obviously because you'll probably end up as the class leader. You'll be held to a higher standard I would think. It's the Navy way.

BTW good luck with going from USMC to Navy, be prepared to be hassled.
