Navy rate pros and cons?

Question

Answer 1

Not for us to decide. Talk to your recruiter and tell them what you really are looking for (overseas duty, less sea service, more action, etc.)

Answer 2

RATE in the Navy is the same as a RANK or Pay Grade in the other branches. These are not RATES. They are duty titles (MOS).

Answer 3

Define what characteristics make one better. I do no know what interests you.

Answer 4

Better for what?

Answer 5

Strictly personal preference. Both have a lot of sea duty.
