Fellow AMDOs wanna be let's start this thread, please post your stats and share any info. Best of luck!
I wrote the community manager a few weeks ago and he informed me that they are trying to have a 50/50 split between prior service and civilians due to prior service guys and gals retiring at the 20 year mark without devoting 20 years of commissioned service. So this is great news for civilians.
I myself am active duty. I have 9 years in currently. My stats are as follows:
