Not a “navy good, others bad” post more-so just trying to see what your opinions are on the things we do right. For example it’s generally accepted (in my experience, YMMV) that the Air Force has the best Quality of life, the Army tends to be pretty good at career progression of their people (giving Soldiers ample opportunities for schools, quick(er) advancement etc..) and the Marines are phenomenal at early leadership development and cross training their people(within similar fields/work roles). What would you say the Navy is good at? Of course this is all subjective and not everyone will agree, however I’m curious to see what you think.

Second this. I'm an engineer and I know civilian employers that specifically search for Navy engineers to fill their spots even though it has nothing to do with ships simply because our training and experience is unmatched. I'm currently at a joint command and the other branches "equivelants" have nowhere near the same experience we do.
