Take a moment to learn more about thegeneral roles and responsibilities of Navy Reserve Sailors.
Most of what you do in the Navy Reserve is considered training.
The basic Navy Reserve commitment involves training a minimum of one weekend a month (referred to as drilling) and two weeks a year (referred to as Annual Training) – or the equivalent.
Environmental Health Officers in the Navy Reserve serve in anOfficer
role. Before receiving the ongoing professional training that comes with this job, initial training requirements must first be met.
For current or former Navy Officers (NAVET): Prior experience satisfies the initial leadership training requirement, so you will not need to go through Officer Training again.
For current or former Officers of military branches other than the Navy (OSVET), as well as for Officer candidates without prior military experience: You will need to meet the initial leadership training requirement by attending the 12-day Direct Commission Officer (DCO) School in Newport, RI.
This will count as your first Annual Training.With flexible training options, Medical Service Corps Officers in the Navy Reserve can comfortably balance civilian and military schedules.

The Medical Service Corps in the Navy Reserve offers you a truly diverse variety of operational venues. In some cases, you can even work in the same civilian location you work in now. What's more, you will enjoy an unrivaled sense of pride and fulfillment known only to those who serve.#J-18808-Ljbffr
