way to go froggystyle. I am glad to hear that you got redesignated. I read your website a while back and I also read your article in the Navy Times. good **** man. glad to hear you can continue your career.

Go NROTC. try your best to get into the 4 year scholarship deal, but the 4 yr and 2 yr "college program" are good pathes too. (or did you already get accepted into NROTC?) OCS is a back door entrance to getting a commission. while OCS grads are just as good as NROTC grads, you do not want to go...

I think he is for real guys...he has posted quite alot on this board and none of it was funny. Chelu55 if this is how you feel, I would seriously consider your reasons for becoming an officer. It must always be Officer First, Job Second. If all you want to do is fly then go the civilian route...

????? Do you know anything about the Navy? ????

Damn Rianne.. you should try asking your questions in bullet format. not in just one big paragraph.... Yes you can get a guaranteed field or Rate like CTI and IS before you sign. Demand it. Don't let the recruiter "trick" you into another field without careful consideration. Just post...

hey kyna, do you always want the last word? take your 1.8 GPA and convert it into a 3.5. now that will be impressive..... I had a 2.4 and raised my GPA to a 3.7. **** I hope I get in this time. btw, don't respond to this.... Hey JaymanC, I didn't realize that you got selected already. good for...

I'd have to agree with evervbody about there being little racism in today's military. I did not see any when I was in. The military is one of the few places that a Nascar MGD drinkin Bubba will hangout with a Master P' Cadillac Escalade with the Chrome 22's Lovin Brotha. (sorry for the stereotypes)

I watched "A Few Good Men" before I got stationed in Cuba. (Guantanamo Bay, Land of 3,000 Cubans trained to Kill Us) Unfortunately the only "mirrors" (see movie) that can be engaged are hanging in Colonel Jessup's wall locker. remember Colonel Jessup is the RSC CO(Rifle Security Company) and...

Take classes when you can, you should shoot for enlisted commissioning programs. That way you will have time to go to school full time.

not really, just alot of strawman arguments. I'm no hippie and definetly not a war protestor, softie, or tree hugger. The oil argument part is just plain dumb. Very poorly thought out. The rest is all emotional banter mixed with some truth. Much like what you hear from the more extreme war...

the only advice to give is... go for it..Apply and let dry.

oh man.. she just called you out.......

no no, not your post. the article about Bush is what i was referring too.

thanks for the clarifiaction esday. I am not familiar with the Law of Gravity, Do you mean Univeral Gravitation? This weight of the world stuff is a mis-leading though. Newton's 3rd Law of Motion states that: "For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction" (Principia Mathematica...

hey turboweeny, whats with all the clown stuff? Man those clowns are seriously disturbing...

Ya know I really don't care for Bush.. and I didn't like Clinton either. But this post has the stink of propoganda all over it. According to the above post... We should all gather on the White House lawn and sing Kuum Ba Ya, holding candles, while worshiping his Supreme Holiness G. W. Bush.

tell you what... go in the military first.. then talk ****.. cause right now you're not even an E-0.. lighten up dude

clowns clowns clowns.... clowns disturb me....

ohh man my heart is bleeding...........is yours too?

All you guys that are enlisting should know that the "picking a MOS at boot camp thing" isn't as good as it seems as they will only have jobs they want filled. which can easily be a job that you don't want. Also, listen to this.. you signed a contract, but so what...that crap don't mean nada...

hey Ghost, are you gonna apply again? I know you applied many times, but give it a shot anyway..

I am pretty sure you won't have the choice of doing the swim at OCS. Out in the Navy/fleet you will be able to choose the swim option. (only if there is a pool available). Anyway Do practice your swim for the sake of being in shape.

I don't think you'll get any kind of waiver for NFO. The age limit is 30. And since you have no prior service you can'r get a waiver. HOWEVER.. you can still be a Staff Corp or Restricted Line officer. Like a Supply Officer, Medical Corps and the like. These are very good jobs too. But the age...

I don't know about Air Force to Marine though..Army to Marine is a little different..

c'mon man. don't ask dumb questions....

dude study the Marine ASTB guide on this forum. and retake that test. 39 is real real low. Most people are getting 50's. It sounds like you took the test and didn't understand alot of the material. But don't despair the study guide on this forum will help you. Another thing. Your credentials are...

damn that whole forum has about 2 or three relevant posts. The rest are all flamers. Hey Buchmaster are you Mohan?

and Ghost... How is the Air Force thing going?

You are also defending your own personal politics...or is ranting on a forum your form of defense of country. Are you questioning KImphil's loyalty to the U.S.? If so speak up and say it. For your sake. I hope you don't go questioning other Marine's and Sailor's loyalty when they differ from...

the fiscal year starts in October. I find your lack of faith.....disturbing haaaaath haaaath Lord Vader

hey as far as the time it takes for him to stop moving and doing deployments well.. It most cases as long as he is a pilot he will always be on a SEA/SHORE rotation that will keep him in a deployable status. normally, like mbeaser says, he will, after training get sent to a squadron and fly for...

I agree its a little unfair. I have never been to OCS but I did go to boot camp and I don't like the idea of little mind games and other bullsh**t activities that I damn sure won't help me as an officer. (if any priors who went to OCS say that the little baby crap and games benefited them then...

Everybody tells me that i'm crazy and stuff. I was in the Navy and saw these guys (SWo's) and I really liked the job. I know they "eat their young" and stand watch all day, but I really want to be a ship driver. anyhow I would venture to say that many, while certainly not all SWO's who hate...

Does anybody else want to be a SWO? I know they have stand watch all the time, but I really want to drive a ship and be a Naval Surface Warfare Officer. It sucks that it is a tight to closed field. I find your lack of faith.....disturbing haaaaath haaaath Lord Vader

dude I think you should go NROTC right now...I hear that ERAU is starting a NROTC unit for August 2003. Why not go NROTC and save yourself he trip to OCS. I find your lack of faith.....disturbing Lord Vader

LCDR Geers, I applied for AMDO, (the CM called me, but they weren't to keen on BDCP for me). SWO and Supply. My question is that since I graduate in June 03. Can I apply for a direct acession in late April? Or do they want me to wait till the day I graduate before I can re-submit an...

I applied for BDCP back in July of last year and I got rejected. I am re-applying in April of this year. The thing is.. that I also graduate from Embry-Riddle in June. My recruiter has informed that I should apply for a direct acession in April instead of BDCP since I would probably Grad before...

hey marti what's up!! I thought you wanted to fly man.... What Happened? Slider "Shut up Goose.." no seriously, are you thinking about not going?

DO the DEW!!! p.s. next time type it like this. "Dining Out (DO" reading that paragraph and not knowing what DO was , was annoying..... anyhow go to the photoalbum section and click near the end (after all those aircraft pictures) for photos of the DO

no

so to answer your question.. no they are definetly not the same test

DISTANT VISIONS... ring a bell

I talking about all the Sci-Fi/Space Cadet stuff on your website. Don't act like you don't know what i'm talking about...

Hey Ed. can you talk to Selres applicants?

Thats great that you know what you want to do after HS. Just keep your goals in mind when you complete things grades, jobs, eagle scout BS, etc. Do good on these things and try hard to be the best. Another thing, SEAL training is especially demanding. Make sure you are a hardcore nut if you...

Hey Valion, I see your still a space cadet in the Imperial Peenal Navy...... Hmm I thought you didn't reenlist.. hehe

There has been a string of crashes of Russian built aircraft lately, in Iran and other countries. These aircraft are not crashing because they are poorly designed, but because they are very old+combined with Iran's already dismal aviation safety record. Screw them.(their government I mean) They...

when the AMDO Community Manager called me he said that they had 23 positions for 2003. that was in AUG of 02. So it is pretty tough. Damn dude, too bad you didn't apply for Nuke Officer. Then it would more of a sure thing since the Navy wouldn't feel like they have to let go a hard charging Nuke...

thanks for the info.
