PO2 Private RallyPoint Member4158795<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I'm looking to go back active duty and exploring all of my options coming from prior service Army into different branches. I had a NC1 tell me that Civil Affairs is a direct convert to Mass Comm and I would not even go to A school. Does that sound right? Would the Navy really rely on giving me OJT or would I have a chance to certify?<br /><br />I have a civilian degree in Journalism and Public Relations, so MC does interest me, but I can assure anyone that Army Civil Affairs is not even close to what MC does. The recruiter also mentioned I would have to come in RC and try to request AC. Has anyone in the current MC community ever experienced this coming from a different branch or converting from reserve to active?Is Civil Affairs a good direct convert to Mass Comm in the Navy? Would I skip A school?2018-11-26T05:46:29-05:00PO2 Private RallyPoint Member4158795<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I'm looking to go back active duty and exploring all of my options coming from prior service Army into different branches.
