It takes more than pulling a trigger to fire our weapons. In America’s Navy, we are the first and last line of defense; and that requires serious ammunition. As a Gunner’s Mate, that falls to you. Mount, stow, and secure all weaponry, repair and calibrate defense systems, maintain guided missile launching, rocket launchers, gun mounts and all other ordnance. If it shoots, it’s your responsibility. We don’t wake up hoping to engage with an enemy, but if that day comes, it’s up to you to make sure we’re ready to aim and fire. Learn more at bit.ly/2wo3rqi

I remember a time on my deployment, I had a little pet bird I was nursing back to health that was exhausted and hurt. He made a little home on our 25mm gun platform one deck up from the 5 inch. One day we were doing pac fires and I realized a few minutes to late that he was too close to the cannon up on the 25mm. So I was sprinting out to him and right as I got there he looked up at me right as the 5 inch fired. I've never felt concussion like that through my body ever in my life, it was like my bones were vibrating out of my body, but even worse in slow motion I watched my little bird shudder and freak out as his heart stopped and he rolled to his back dead. I scooped him up and with the help of my friends on board we gave him a burial at sea and dumped him into the ocean. o7 little bird.

GMs are the small arm weapons experts aboard ships, you’ll be dealing with 9mm, M4, M240, M2HB (M2A1), grenade launchers and various other small arms, you can also become 5 in or VLS tech if you so choose but our main job is to shoot and maintain small arms as well as train and qualify the crew for watch standing and crew served team. Not to mention we also deal with ATFP. Been a GM for a little over 6 years now and I truly believe this is one of the best rates of the navy. Highly recommend if you like to play with guns.

GMs do not work on CIWS nor do they fire any missiles from VLS or fire the MK-45 5-inch gun, that is what FCs do. the GMs are responsible for the maintenance of the gun and launch systems themselves but do not directly fire any weapons above the 25mm.

There is a reason the back of the M9 has grooves. Its where your hand goes to move the slide to the rear. So your hand is free of a potentially loaded barrel...... What not to do is put your hand in front of a potentially loaded weapon and then proceed to use the front of the slide to pull it to the rear. (0:24) I've LITERALLY seen someone shoot their hand by doing this. (From a GM2)

It’s a bit more of a gamble, you can become a surface warfare officer and take on the duty of the weapons officer which pretty much means you’re the officer that the CO designated to be in charge of the armory, but I’m not exactly sure if you get to choose that or not because I’m not an officer and I have no idea what it’s like to join as an officer. If it’s anything like enlisting then you will.

@@Solaniin So at boot camp if you enlisted as a linguist, a CTI (cryptologic technician interpretive) will pull you aside with others and explain what schooling is going to be like. They’ll also give a list of languages the navy is looking for and ask if you prefer one over others. Early on in boot camp you’ll be asked if you know any other languages, which may affect the one you’re assigned. As for changing your rate, it really depends on what big navy wants. However, nuclear engineering is something they will always be looking for.

Depends. Sometimes it’s work on some guns and go home, sometimes you’re standing Duty Guns for 24 hours. What your ship needs from you will determine how much you work. In port that is. Being Deployed or underway is a whole different ball game

waterhead001 not going to lie, it gets boring. You go to work, and stand watch. Caffeine will be your best friend, but to make up for it you will see cool places depending on what fleet you’re in. Sometimes you get to come home on time, sometimes you get extended and stay out at sea longer. As a GM you’ll run gun shoots to qualify your shipmates in Small Arms, and sometimes you get to do live fire exercises with other Countries
