I knew quite a few people in the Navy that were from Missouri, Minnesota, and other mid-western states and they all adjusted to life at sea as well those that came from coastal states. You'll be fine. Most people get seasick at some point early on in their first tour of sea duty and then...

My DD received her DoDMERB instruction letter today and I'm not sure whether she should schedule the exam right away or if she should postpone it. I know you normally want to complete everything in the application process as soon as possible, but in her case I'm thinking it may be better to...

From the application instructions, "ONCE AN APPLICATION IS SUBMITTED, GRADE INFORMATION, TEST SCORES, AND EXTRACURRICULAR PARTICIPATION CANNOT BE MODIFIED OR SUPPLEMENTED."
