just as much as your next 14 years of alimony will warm your buds hearts :D

http://www.defenselink.mil/militarypay/retirement/ad/19_faqs.html#Q2 ... would be the most reliable answer. Because I cant find it in U.S.C. Title 10 But I too was told at 20 years I get to add on 4 years. Must have been a misunderstanding somewhere.

I didnt ever have a Blue and Gold Officer. I talked to an USAFA type though convinced me not to do that...

I thought that was a WW2 poster...

now your just putting words in my mouth:eek:. As I understand it part of the clearance checks are that you arent a drug user, your not likely to do underhanded things like sell B-52s to the Russians, your not involved in a DC sex scandel, etc. The logic being if your trusted to handle the...

I have a movie idea...

For some reason I always thought it was a group of Officers from your community. That is really good to know. I was confused by the "though not all" comment. Mind expanding of that thought :D As a side note. I keep hearing that the TS clearance is good. But its value is more because it...

Yea I could see that happening. I just pulled that off http://www.npc.navy.mil/Officer/Intelligence_Information/InfoWar/GeneralInfo.htm So I would hope that would be what the Navy considers operational. But who knows. On all the stuff I have been reading "Joint" and "Operational" seem to...

Agreed but it sounds like JOCCP allows training while operational. "The Junior Officer Cryptologic Career Program (JOCCP), developed in 1971 at NSA, provides junior officers (02-04) with an extensive three-year career development program in cryptology. JOCCP participants may serve in as...

I dont think I would have time to do both and then get the JOCCP program. But its something to ask around the community while im at Corry Station.

Good to know. I know IP guys were required to get it a SWO pin but I didnt think I had the ability to also... too bad I want to go on a sub.

.. if they come out socially retaded enough... they wont have the ability to leave the military voluntarily and easily will go on IAs without complaining... on top of that they have the whole Stockholm syndrome going for them...genius!! :rolleyes:

That is like kicking Doc's 40+ year legacy in the balls. We worked hard to show major symphonies that we weren't just another novelty act. I dont think money is the issue or we can easily make it a non issue. Jack up prices people will still come to concerts and sell out the Halloween concert.

Vast would be a great description of my experience. Im agreeing with HH-60H here. Im confused that anyone actually is paying attention to rankings let alone trying to peg it into a certain label.

It is by no means enough that an officer of the Navy should be a capable mariner. He must be that, of course, but also a great deal more. He should be as well a gentleman of liberal education, refined manners, punctilious courtesy, and the nicest sense of personal honor. -Reefpoints

We had the firstie club instead... it was the top deck of the crew house... 5 dollar pitchers on yuengling = bliss

I mentioned a different article in passing http://www.airwarriors.com/forum/showpost.php?p=352419&postcount=17 but it really does deserve its own thread. The biggest problems recently have been 1. The faculty incidents 2. Misconduct in the Hall The biggest pain being no weeknight...

I have the Budweiser, absolute and severn discomfort shirts. There was also a BOHICA one. With all of their new "Study" time I wonder what new ones will come out.

Ouch only 20th... apparently because of this there are big changes going their way :eek: http://www.capitalonline.com/cgi-bin/read/2007/08_17-52/NAV No academy guy would whine like that... they tend to whine like this...

They must have switched around a decimal. They always mess up some mundane detail.

Hypothetically, they would hold you out of class and see if they could solve it. If they can not NPQ. I have a friend whose PRK didnt take. She is now a PAO.

Very clever.... I also know a guy who looks exactly like that and is in VT-3 since Feb and is an ENS... Plus the video being a month old... I of course could be wrong :D

An ENS is your on-wing?

I really like the video. Some communities are harder to explain to midshipmen wanting to join the Navy. While some jobs are easy to explain or are shown often in TV or media. (Pilot flies the plane. Infantry runs around with a rifle. AF plays dress up) Some other communities are not. I knew...

Here you go F-35 VSTOL DEMO

Thats one of the jobs. TW-4 has 3 people in various stages of doing that paticular IA. They call it the warlock system and your job is to run around updating the software on the humvee carrying the system. It is the most prevalent IA. The platoon one I dont have any more details on because...

Another good simple workout that does not require a gym is found here. http://www.navyseals.com/workout PHYSICAL TRAINING SCHEDULE I (Mon/Wed/Fri) SETS OF REPETITIONS WEEK #1: 4X15 PUSHUPS 4X20 SITUPS 3X3 PULL UPS ... WEEK #9: 6X30 PUSHUPS 6X30 SITUPS 3X10 PULL UPS ... So eventually you...

I like how they mitigate the F-22's loss by basically saying... Oh its not a problem with our new toy its because one of our top pilots lost situational awareness in simulated combat.

Just got orders to Kunia after a little more schooling. Thanks for the help guys :)

Take out the burger part. It doesnt really convince me your a perfectionist... only that you really like making burgers.

This is exactly what happens for all DOR/ Attrites/ NPQs at Corpus from Primary. http://www.airwarriors.com/forum/showthread.php?p=344690#post344690 My clock started when I commisioned. But I think your getting ahead of yourself. Work hard and enjoy the flying.

Believe it. Stucon wont send a SNA/SNFO they will send a DOR/Attrite/NPQ

Short answer is yes but they receive training. I can provide 2 examples of DOR/Attrites who did, one who was wounded by RPG fire. PM me for more details for the term paper or book you must be writing.

Here is what happens in Corpus for DOR/Attrite/NPQ Step by Step 1. Lots of paper work 2. You leave your squadron after talking with CO. 3. Check into TW-4. You get put into the stash pool. If anyone needs a stash Ensign/LTjg they come into stucon and request you. So its usually best to go...

Some other advice for people trying to "Game" the big board for primary or advanced. If you are able to find someone to trade squadrons with he probably will let you. If your checking into primary look for an open slot at the earliest date. That is the squadron you will be assigned. Red...

Well as with all things involving the Navy when they ask your preference. Step 1: Submit Your Dream List Step 2: ??? Step 3: Profit!!! or disaster... Maybe im looking in the wrong place for IW info for what each base does. www.npc.navy.mil (as my detailer gave me) doesnt really...

Thank you for the input. The list is my order of preferences. I just wanted to make sure there wasn't something I didnt know about lurking in Hawaii. I also read something on Navy NPC about JOCCP which seems to lurk around the dreaded Fort Meade area and seems like a check in the box for...

I just got redesignated to IW and have 4 choices for assignment. Kunia, Hawaii San Antonio, Texas Augusta, Georgia Ft Meade, Maryland I have not seen any of these bases. Does anyone have advice or experiences regarding these bases?

Yep, 2002-2003 the peer to peer one where we supposedly ate up 95% of the bandwidth. Oh I remember that one too.

That's true everywhere. Your internet provider can see where packets of information are coming from and where they are going to. Not that people will spend the time to decrypt and save your dirty converstaions with your girlfried but more looking to see if your eating up the networks bandwidth...

The future is a scary place.

Last time they had an internet crackdown was with facebook. They threatened the same thing but nothing happened. So I wouldnt worry about it, keep your nose clean, and download porn at the sponsors house.

Yes I had it twice before. It went away in about a week each time. No worries :)

Just apply and if you get turned down... oh well, you dont need a 5.0 gpa... plus there are many other ways to become an officer if you dont get accepted.

go to the usna.edu site and they will get you started with the process. Its long its complicated and you should start now. Plus you can use the search function to find other people who asked the same question you just did. Good Luck!

Its weird how these atheists keep showing up with no posts... or maybe coincidence?

Shrink, stop posting and reread that several times.
