This is an acronym used by disgruntled sailors for "Never Again Volunteer Yourself". This theme can run true though your entire life. Some people will volunteer for everything that comes along. These people are the ones that want to take on every challenge and win each time. Other people only volunteer when they know they can make the best out of a situation. Then there is the third group, they remember, NAVY.

Even while serving in the Navy you will be asked again and again to volunteer for different things. Then just after you raise your hand you will realize how stupid it was to do so, somebody will say, NAVY to you.

The world is made up of different people, those who do and those who sit by and watch. Volunteering is not a bad thing, just know you limits.
