    O-4/DH Selection vs 2FOS

    Is this also a thing for Navy guys trying to intentionally 2xFOS for O-4 - presumably wanting to go airlines with a fat severance check in hand? Doesn't seem like a bad idea - especially for FTS and AD dudes lucky enough to be on flying orders with currency. Do they somehow demand a 'P' or some...

    O-4 Select FITREPs (aviation)

    lol I promise to be a JOPA bro! Just kinda career-paranoid reading about the ugly O-4 boards...But serious question: Do 1st fleet tour MP's ever make O-4 or is a 'MP' fitrep basically a killing blow regardless of "shore tour" performance, education/grad school, platform type, etc?

    FITREPs

    Thanks for all the great insights. I'm definitely better armed for the future than before. Along those lines, can verbiage like "MP Due to timing, EP Level Performance" truly make a difference on the O4 board? And for shore tour, what looks better - a competitive MP in a production tour...

    FITREPs

    I'm new to the JO FITREP (pilot) process and have some basic questions: In general discussions about promotions/career and someone says they were a "Fleet MP", does that mean they detached as a 1/1 MP, or that they were an MP on their final competitve FITREP? My understanding is that LT...
