Hello everyone. To start, thank you for the wealth of information on this forum. I am new to this site and thank you for the helpful information that you all provide- I appreciate it.
I am a Cadet who is scheduled is commission into the USCG in 2021. I will approach my first flight selection board this fall. Normally, I would take the ASTB onboard my home Academy. However, with covid-19 and associated factors this might be a challenge.
I will most likely be in northern NC/ southeast VA area this summer. I researched the locations for USN/USMC Officer Recruiting Stations and also the NROTC units in the Norfolk Area. I will be contacting these entities directly, but I wanted to test the waters here and see what you all think:
The question is "three fold" to some extent:
Thank you all for your thoughts.

The question is "three fold" to some extent:
- Is covid-19 affecting ASTB testing across the country at Officer Recruiting Stations? I assume not, since OCS is still running on schedule, but I figure that with social distancing and teleworking procedures there might be some delays on testing.
- Would a Navy or USMC Officer Recruiting Station be willing to give a test to a Coastie? I don't want to overburden the recruiting offices and take an ASTB spot from someone applying for OCS, but it would be very helpful if I could take the exam this summer.
- If the recruiting stations don't work out, do you think any NROTC units are doing testing even though the vast majority of colleges are closed?
Thank you all for your thoughts.
