Gentlemen,
Interesting news, but not necessarily positive or negative in the long-term. I like to use the term "interestingly neutral."
I've been called and asked to interview with the XO of my NRD unit later this week. Looks like one or more of the instructors at the NROTC unit called down to the NRD after I asked for their letters of recommendation for my package. They apparantly said some very nice things, and from what I was told, the XO wants a chance to get to know me vis-a-vis with a little interview.
I'm a little nervous about the whole deal. While taking some classes at the NROTC unit allowed me to directly interact with a Marine Corps Colonel and a Navy Commander already, it's still a touch intimidating to think about this, especially as it appertains to selection.
I know to be candid, open, and honest. I know to be myself and be sincere, and definintely not artificial. I should have no problem with any of that, seeing as I've been doing this for the last 2 years basically. This just feels like it might be a little bit of a turning point in my application process, and while it's not the board in Millington, there might be a little sway with this.
I suppose I'm just looking for a little support. Not that I'm a girly girl though :icon_smil
I'll be sure to cut off any Irish Pennants I find before I go down :icon_mi_1
