There's a few of us at least staying in the Navy Gateway Inn that is right on base--if you haven't made reservations yet I would do it ASAP! Also if you haven't seen the Facebook group yet, you can check it out here. http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=117963734882854&v=wall

Hey everybody 4 weeks to go! Looking forward to meeting everyone.

Where are people staying in Newport prior to the 22nd?

Crashing at a buddies house then the gateway, like the beav said. Make sure you let them know you have orders if you call to make a reservation.

does anyone have their orders in hand?

I was told that process of getting the orders is really slow. Mine have been on request for two weeks now. I was told that they usually send it out around two weeks till your OCS date to make sure there are no changes.

Yeah that is what I was told as well. A few people on the FB group page have said that they have theirs already though, so I'm not sure what the deal is.

I think some are getting their FS letters confused with actual orders, I think if anyone would have actual orders right now it would be us BDCP types and I just have my original BDCP orders from two years ago. I was told the week before I report I'd have them and everything would be squared away.

Right, my OR said the same thing. We'll get OCS orders sometime in the next week or two when they send our documents up to Newport.

10 days out and im still waiting for my orders. I think I might be one of the last ones and driving from the farthest distance. I wanted to already be on the road.


Anyone else still waiting?

Dude that sucks... hopefully they come in the next day or so! I finally got mine on Monday. I'm surprised you haven't gotten them yet!

 

[CUPike11]

lets do our best to make sure that doesn't happen to us...get it right the first time

Oh don't worry, it'll happen anyways.....several times.

They'll find a reason to put you in the sand. :icon_smil

 

[ClutchS306]

Haven't got my orders yet either!

 

[Gus Gorilla]

Mine just came today. Fed Ex. My processor called last week to confirm my address and let me know they were on the way. Not sure that's the norm, but my processor is on the ball.

 

[Ezekiel]

I just got mine by e-mail and was told just to print a few copies of them. They're legit, but don't have letterhead or anything like my BDCP orders did.

 

[ClutchS306]

Just got my orders yesterday. 8 copies and plane tickets and itenary. Should be good to go now as long as i get a cab from the airport and a room on base when i show up!
