What are the responsibilities and job description for the Naval Flight Officer position at US Navy Reserve?
Continue Your Naval Career with the Navy Reserve
Pursuing a civilian career doesn't have to mean getting stuck in the corporate world. As a current or former Naval Flight Officer, there are plenty of part-time opportunities to use your leadership skills and talent in an environment that's constantly changing.
Family obligations, career aspirations, and the desire to settle down and settle in are just a few reasons why many NFOs leave active duty. However, in the Navy Reserve, you can achieve all of these goals and still continue your Naval career.
The mission of the Navy Reserve is to provide strategic depth and deliver operational capabilities to the Navy and Marine Corps team and Joint forces, in times of peace or war. Navy Reserve Sailors seamlessly support and actively aid that mission, all while continuing to lead their own independent lives in the civilian world.
