I remember an advertisement from the Army back in the late 80’s, “We do more before 9 AM than most people do in a day.” My military experience was just that. Up at o’dark-thirty for PT, shower, chow, first formation. https://scubarob.com/2023/09/06/more-before-9/

Did you know you can use you education benefits as a veteran to get your scuba certification?

When Skye, a former linguist for the U.S. Air Force first joined our program, she was hesitant and unsure of what lay ahead. However, with each dive, I saw her confidence grow. She started with the basics and quickly progressed, driven by her newfound passion. Our program through NAUI not only provided her with the skills and certifications needed to become a proficient diver but also gave her the courage to explore the world.

G.I. Bill® is a registered trademark of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). More information about education benefits offered by VA is available at the official U.S. government website at http://www.benefits.va.gov/gibill

Step 1:

​(a) Contact Neptune Warrior (neptunewarrior22@gmail.com)

(b) Learn about G.I. Bill® eligibility requirements and find out if you can get these benefits. If you’re an active-duty service member or Veteran, a member of the National Guard or Reserves, or a qualified survivor or dependent, find out if you can get VA education benefits through the G.I. Bill® and other educational assistance programs.

Step 2:

​Apply for your G.I. Bill® benefits.

​How to apply for the G.I. Bill® and related benefits go to the VA website at: https://www.va.gov/education/how-to-apply/ and follow the directions.

​If you have already applied for your benefits and just need to find out how many months of benefits you have left, please go to the VA website at: https://www.va.gov/education/gi-bill/post-9-11/ch-33-benefit/. and follow the steps on how to check your benefits.

Print out your VA statement of benefits you will need to bring it to us.

​Step 3:

​Upon completion of all exams. The NAUI VA testing center will give you three documents and a presentation so you can submit for your VA reimbursement. (all reimbursements from the VA are first come first serve but it is taking about 30 to 60 days to receive your reimbursement from the VA).

Selecting the perfect travel companion is crucial for anyone, but it's especially important if you have PTSD. The right travel buddy can make your journey enjoyable and stress-free, while the wrong one might exacerbate your symptoms and ruin your trip. When considering a travel partner, focus on compatibility, communication skills, and reliability. Your travel buddy should share your interests in diving and travel, have an understanding of PTSD, communicate openly, and be dependable. These qualities will ensure a supportive and harmonious travel experience, allowing you to fully enjoy your adventures.
