    Well you learn to swim, no big deal, but in the middle of the ocean or in a sub, I doubt there is anywhere to swim anyway.

    If swimming is the only reason you aren't joining the navy, don't worry, they sure will teach you. You don't really have to swim too much anyway unless you are going to be a rescue swimmer in the coast guard... lol

    You will feel a lot more confidant about your enlistment in the navy if you learn to swim, first.

    An of course learning to swim for the navy is a lot better than wanting to be able to fly to join the air force. Also of course not all navy jobs are even on ships, while most are, there are many port jobs that are done by 1000's of wonderful troops.
