    No dude let dude let me clear the air here I was just kiddin around. The interest I was talkin about was your interest in TV.... you know what this is beggining to sound more gay I'd better stop before people really start to get the wrong message. Just for clarification I'm not gay...not that there is anything wrong with that.

    I had ben shot down as a dirty civilian with some retired Navy references and above scores...I reapplied as an E-3 and an E-4, got in on the second try. I had finished 1st in A-school, had my Aircrew wings, and had pretty good reccomendations from some P-3 IP's from VP-30. My re-app as an E-4 had a great reccomendation from the skipper of VP-5, great guy, I really think his comments made the difference.

    I have not been to an OCS board, but was at a command selection board. The take-away I had from the tank is that you have about 30 seconds for the room to look at your record. I think lots of guys have good grades, ASTB/OAR, etc. but that becomes numbers to the board (my opinion here) I think to really stand out to the presenter of your package you need some good reccomendations, and something that makes you stand out...that or just apply a bunch and they eventually give up (my approach :D)

    There are a lot of good threads here about applying, spend a few days really combing through from the guys who made it in from the "street" as I have a little different background than you.


    Oh, and I am in advanced (TC-12's) training to fly the P-3, hopefully followed by "The Ocho"

    If they send me helo's now (especially to those crappy Sierra's ;) ), I'll have really pissed in someones Cheerio's.

    And Otto does have a nice ass.:icon_tong

    Fixed it.

    Ya know... I'm a member of another forum where the rules are: you must capitalize, punctuate, and spell properly, and use proper grammar. I wish more sites had rules like that. :)

    I've seen your type before, easy to recognize. Luckily for you, it's the new Navy. Of course you're a wannabe so not so sure you even register in this thread or this site. However, in keeping with the tradition of callsigns, I know give you, a wannabe, your new AW callsign...SackLunch...or SL if you're into the brevity thing.

    A mod should make this his avatar:

    G-rated, but it gets the point across.

    sack lunch is nice..but i always pictured him as "that one kid"...who was at the bus stop and had the big jacket and always seemed to have a runny nose and a huge back pack. we all rode the bus when we were little and we ALL know "that one kid"...but i don't know how you callsign that.

    I was never the sickly kid. ;) Tell me about the old days, didn't you think it was useless hiding under your desk during nuclear blast drills?

    And just curious your first time voting? Ike or Stevenson? :D

    I'm not sure what's funnier. The fact that he is being schooled online by the Salty winged ones, OR the fact that he seems completely oblivious to it and keeps coming back for more.

    It truly, IS the internet.
