It was slightly delayed, but it did take place. I heard there was fewer people who applied, so hopefully all you solid and persistent applicants get picked. Good luck!!!

You got this!!

I went to DCOIC in March, not ODS, but the instructors confirmed the same uniform list will be used. We wore NWU's almost the entire time. I did see the ODS classes that went through, and they also wore NWU's.

Coyote brown is authorized. No need to buy black boots.

I went to DCOIC in March and there was a few people that were clearly not meeting standards (BMI). The instructors still allowed them to complete DCOIC.

Surprisingly quiet compared to the last couple years. Let me know if anyone needs some assistance.

All, Commissioning docs and oath arrived a couple weeks ago. I'm getting commissioned on Wednesday, Aug 8th on the USS Midway in San Diego. I was expecting October timeframe like last years applicants, but it came quicker than I thought. It felt pretty good trying on those khaki's for the first...

Congrats! We will have to stay in touch. Hopefully it’s a fairly smooth process. Matt

AW's, I just found out around noon that I was a selectee for AMDO. ENS Arce, I appreciate your assistance in this process. This forum and many other forums on AW has helped me out immensely. I'm excited for what the future holds. Matt

Hopefully next week @Merk. Doubtful anything will come out tomorrow. Last year we got results back on the 16th, but obviously that didn’t happen this year.

Just like what @fuknadub stated last year, "hope for a week, plan for 2-3 weeks, be ready for a month...." Eagerly waiting as well @Merk, but also not harassing my OR.

I'm here with you buddy... AMDO/AEDO submitted.

Ya, I won't even start asking my OR until they 1. contact me or 2. someone posts on here saying they did or did not get selected.

Good luck everyone.

I had on a total of six, but my first three were with 2 1527's and 1 1520. I heard they wanted 1525's because that's what you're applying for, so I scrambled at the last minute and found two O-5's and 1 O-4 (1525) to complete. My OR never told me that they were only going to accept 3 although...

That would be nice to know.

Good news is I was able to get my DAU course certificates for the PQM cert. that I forgot to submit into my package at the last minute. I didn't think it would be useful to submit them since I didn't have the DAU PQM certification. I talked to LCDR AMDO buddy of mine, and he said most certainly...

I've heard similar information, but all a learning curve for me being my first time applying.

That's exciting news. Congratulations. Do you know how many total applicants there were that applied? How many total selected, and how many alternates? Matt

Yes this sounds better to me.

Let's all hope not.

Nice. My first time applying for 1525, so far the district hasn't found anything wrong with my package. Hopefully goes the same in Millington. Did you run into any issues?

Did you apply for both 1525 and 1515? Where are you located?

Incorrect. IAW the PA 107, the maximum age is 35, waiverable to 42 if selected by the professional review board.

I just finished my sixth interview last night. Not one geopolitical question. They were all scenarios, 4790, and career progression/billets/goals questions. Interviews should be based off how you can perform your job, not who you support.

@fuknadub - sorry I my sailor mouth got the worst of me in my previous reply on your profile name.

@fucknadub, I had to get a letter from the VA claiming that I do not currently receive VA benefits. My OR requested this.

I'm considering applying now. Originally was going for 1525 for the April boards because I thought I was too old to apply for 1520. I talked to one of my old sailors who used to work for me and he got picked up 1520 a couple years back. He gave me the contact information to the AMDO CM CDR Edge...

Any officer recruiters or any members have any experience with their sailors trying to go DCO with a completed/approved waiver? I'm not talking about neck or hand tattoos which are now accepted, but arm sleeves. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you...

Well I'm glad it got corrected. Looking at your previous posts it looks like you've had some bad experience with OR's. My OR seems to be on top of everything, so I hope she continues to work out. I'm applying for AMDO and AEDO (if I can a waiver from OCM, no engineering or STEM degree). First...

Brand new member here and first post. Boards are coming up in March-April for AMDO, correct? Any prospective candidates? I assume homestead will be giving it another shot?
