I would look into ROTC a little more in depth since you are just starting college. You will need a bachelors degree to be a pilot in the Navy, so pick a major you will enjoy and get good grades in (most important). Study hard and enjoy college. Proper grammar is always appreciated.

If you can solo, you can solo x-country...the extra 10 hours will not make a difference

They will usually ask questions in the format of "what does an O-1 wear as a collar device" or "what does an O-5 wear on the SDB sleeves"

Your military status will not affect your federal returns, only your state returns if applicable.

Dunno if this is up here yet but the memorial service has been scheduled for Monday. Fyi. http://www.pnj.com/article/20100130/NEWS01/1300322/1068/NEWS12/Memorial-service-set-for-Monday-for-Whiting-pilot?GID=agsthKCWtU/fZ2HlOltAEHALq7DSVeEAkjFIlfp/AEs%3D

I don't see why the law degree would not help your overall package...but it also depends on the community you are applying for.

There are some new laws out there that may apply to some...fyi. For instance, if you bought a new car this year you can add on the taxes to your standard deduction. Stashed VITA rep out.

I'm pretty sure I live on the 6th floor of that same complex you speak of... I know class 07-10 should be getting here soon from OCS and I liasioned them as a candio so I'll shoot you some info if I hear of anything from them.

Don't take a cab from the airport, it will be costly. Try and get someone from your class to pick you up. And don't show up with a ton of shit.

We were not allowed to use electic razors unless you had a special chit or some shit like that. Also, don't expect that POV run within the first few weeks. Just sayin'

Texas sure does and check is in the mail! Well done Texas. I am actually hoping Texas wins the BCSNC as I despise both of the SEC teams.

Well I went to bed in my short sleeve PT shirt and forgot to change it to my long sleeve in the morning since I slept in my sweats. In the anticipation of the out-PFA I didn't check to make sure I was in proper uniform. We get to the out-PFA and they say take off your sweat tops. I start...

Don't forget the habitual head bob every time he had food in his mouth at the 10 minute warning;)

I graduated in the same class as mot.......unfortunately :D They will let you have ibuprofin while you are there, you just have to get it from med pick up. To be honest, I had shin splints from week 2-8 and I just sucked it up....then I got beat for over an hour the day before candio because...

I just commissioned on Friday and I happen to know who your class team will be. I'm not going to say who so you all don't have some fun spoiled, but be prepared to get rocked. Stand by....

I noticed that too. I think I've gotten so used to the war spoon that I will continue to eat like that after OCS. On second thought, maybe not...

One of the main reasons I chose Naval Aviation as a career is CAP. I joined when I was 15 and now I am less than 24 hours away from leaving for OCS.

Dude, it's Haagen-Dazs, duh! ;)

Where is JT when you need him?

Gayest post ever.

If you want a serious answer then search. I guarantee you it is out there. The best thing you can do is get good grades, simple as that. Second best thing is to get in good extracurricular activities with leadership experience. This is stupid.

Soooo were you drinking that much water so that you flush your system in order to pass the test?????

Well, your current doc should have all of your medical records....I hope :confused: Because I am in the same boat....ahem ship.

http://www.fox4kc.com/wdaf-remembering-speicher-story-8309,0,5827080.story Just learned about this but Capt. Speicher was a CAP Cadet before joining the Navy. That is motivation right there.

Old fat man: Take your papers and put them on top of your folders. Me: Put my paper on top of my folder. Old fat man: (grabs my papers first) Jesus, this paper is inverted. I said on top of your folder! (which it was!!!). And you are going to be an officer? Me: (Bite my tongue)....although I...

I didn't hear a thing about the ADCP once it was filled out and submitted. The biggest thing is making sure you will graduate by the time you say you will on the form. So if need be, space things out. Otherwise, you will not hear anything about the ADCP once sworn in (at least in my experience).

Just fill something in. I don't think I ever took EXACTLY the classes listed, but I graduated on time, that is the key.

This link will give you all you need to know about the ASTB http://www.airwarriors.com/forum/search.php?do=process

I am pretty sure gatordev wasn't talking about that *item* looking like the US Open Trophy, but something else ;)

I am going to assume you are referring to this guy....? Or maybe I am having another tweedle dee moment :confused:

^^^ To piggyback, when writing a statement explaining why you should get the job, you should always make your first paragraph your strongest or it will just go to the paper shredder like everyone else. Your first paragraph is obviously your weakest. Fix it.

Noted. I hope that the jodies I have learned over the years are not widely used (for instance "Irene").

I somehow get the feeling that I may be said "drill body" in a month

I personally do not think the technological advances of space exploration, like Brett has pointed out, have been that great. Instead, a goal like going to Mars withing 15 years motivates a lot of young people to go beyond themselves and strive every day to be better. I believe that the...

I was there Sunday as well. One thing I noticed is the awkward stench that the Navy aircraft had compared to the AF planes. It smelled like been there done that. Especially that P-3 :D

You may join at any age; however, the cutoff for the cadet program is 18. There are many opportunities available to senior members (21+) that may spark your interest. www.gocivilairpatrol.com

Statesman, Fair enough. Believe me, I have taken the input from the forum members to heart, and I would never do something out that just doesn't make much sense. I value the input from those more experienced than me; after all, that is what got me to being that close to OCS. Thanks for the...

Options I cannot do: 1) Dog: cannot take care of one while in flight school and I only have 1.5 months left here 2) Shotgun: I just do not feel comfortable with that big of a weapon. I know it may be good for home defense but it's just not for me.....not yet. I am glad so many of you have...

I was at home for the second break-in, albeit I was sleeping. That is what concerns me. The cops around here don't care (although I know the chief of police personally from CAP) which is no help. I do leave in a little over a month, but I do think some sort of weapon is a good idea. Thanks...

North Campus actually....

We wuz robbed again.....so it's time for some artillery For the second time in two months, my house got robbed. I am now seriously looking into buying a gun because I don't know if this guy is packing or not; and I do not want to have a nice confrontation without something to back me up if...

Get LORs from people who know you......officers are better, but not better than people that know you well. Supervisory jobs are excellent! That is what you will do as an officer in the military. Hit that stuff hard in your motivational statement and you will do fine. Good Luck

1) Rock the ASTB 2) Volunteer and get leadership experience 3) LOR's from people who know you well 4) Again, rock the ASTB

If it is an official tournament.... Jam Rules: yes Pull ball: yes Re-racks: 1, after 5 cups are made

YGTBFSM...I am actually in Florida on that day....albeit in Miami :D. I would rape that tournament, no one would stand a chance. Now I am quite tempted to drive up to PCola for the day...... Ehhh, not quite. Miami women are sooooo much better :tongue2_1

Listen, many members of the forum are tearing you a new asshole, and it is quite well deserved. But what needs to be answered before you can be helped (if that is possible), is why do you really want to separate from the military. A girl? A better career? Fear of dying? What is it...

I am also in BDCP, but don't have the reservations you do; however, it is understandable. You swore in and you will owe the Navy, albeit as an officer or enlisted. Talk to your OR immediately if you haven't already. Or you could find yourself someone with the HIV and catch it...jk

Well, when you live in flatland Ohio, MSL seems pretty legit ;)
