I am the parent of a 17 year old son (high school junior) who is leaning toward joining the Navy. He is interested in the Emergency, Fire & Rescue School. I have 101 questions.
He is a certified diver w/ AOW. He will complete EFR & Rescue this summer. Is being a SEAL the only way to dive in the Navy? Are there any diving opportunities involved in Emergency, Fire & Rescue training? (This is my question, he likes to dive but isn't overly worried about diving as part of the curriculum)
He is interested in becoming a firefighter/paramedic, and instead of attending college, is (HIGHLY) interested in pursuing military training.
Is there anyone out there with some experience/knowledge that I can direct more questions?
Thank you for any help.
Julie
