[Joe Wicked]

Name: Joseph A.K.A. Joe
Rank: ET3 (E4)
Branch: Navy
Job: Electronics Technician on Fast Attack Submarine
Years of Service: 6 1/2years


Assignments:
1. Submarine and Electronic Schools in Groton CT 91-92
2. USS Jefferson City SSN759 92-95 (New Construction boat took through the Panama Canal to San Diego)
3. Deep Submergence Rescue Unit San Diego 95-96 (limited duty, I ripped the tendon in my ankle)
4. USS Portsmouth SSN707 96-97
5. Naval Computer and Telecommunications Station San Diego 97-98 (Limited Duty again, I re-injured my ankle.)

I had surgery and then it collapsed back again, so they processed me for a Medical Discharge on Jan 4, 98. I think I would likely still be in if I did not injure my ankle. I am one who can also say that I made E5 2 times, never got busted and got out as an E4. I made it but lost the promotion due to the limited duty. I was not eligible. When I went back to full duty, I made it again, but once again lost it as I was back on limited duty again.
