Recruiter vs. Reality
What the Recruiter Says
Be the Navy's shipboard machinist — running lathes, mills, and grinders to fabricate and repair the precision metal parts a ship needs at sea.
What It's Actually Like
When the supply chain can't reach you mid-ocean, you make the part. It's a real machinist trade — precision work in a shipboard machine shop — and the skills transfer directly to civilian machining.
