I'm changing trades and Air Nav is one of the options. I wrote the Air Nav exams about 5-6 years ago, but failed. So, I'm going to write it again soon. I remember a while ago hearing about a "practice" air nav exam that the PSOs have. Has anyone ever heard of this? The PSO at my base has never...

I'm loaded on CABA diver requal course for later this month and am wondering a few things: What kind of dive ops is it? It appears that this course will have a mix of Ship's Divers and Combat Divers, so I cant see us doing all the ship ops like LMDE and Necklace Searches? What should I expect...
