I'm thinking about joining the Navy, but it seems kind of daunting. Is there a way you can put the Navy in a positive light to me and make it interesting enough so that I'll want to enlist?
Well, the Navy is the branch of armed forces designated for naval and amphibious warfare. This can include lake-borne, riverine, littoral or ocean-borne combat operations and related functions.
Yeah, I've kind of gotten that basis of understanding. Is there anything more specific you can tell me about it?
The U.S. Navy is the largest and most capable navy in the world. So if your thinking of joining the U.S. Navy you'll be a part of something great.
That's a fair point. I guess it is really honorable. And they have a long history, right? Is there anything history-related that you can tell me about it to get my juices flowing about joining?
The history of the U.S. Navy can be divided into two major periods. The first "Old Navy" was small but respected. Now the "New Navy" is the result of modernization and was the largest in the world by the 1920's. Lots of great history you'd be apart of.
