According to a recent study by the Pensacola,Fla.- based Navy Advancement Center, Sailors looking for the best chances for advancement should consider sea duty over shore duty when given the option by their detailers. The study showed statistically significant differences in the average standard exam scores, average final multiple scores and percent advancement for Sailors on sea duty. Advancements for Sailors on sea duty in pay grades E-4 to E-6 ranged from four to seven percent higher than their shore duty counterparts.
