So... as of today, by definition, a Navy Warrant has to be at least an E6 who has been selected for E7. Do we know which rates will be eligible for AVO CWO2?
This does not apply to the new community. The NAVADMIN specifically states it'll be through recruiting. My understanding is any enlisted sailor with the requisite education/skills could apply.
Wow
I do not believe existing WO's can apply. The intent is to acsess new/younger/new entry candidates. My guess is existing enlisted may apply like any other officer program...
First and only Navy Warrant program I’ve heard of that doesn’t require you to be an E7-select.
Army Flying Warrants off the street is of course a well known thing. But you can’t be a Navy Warrant (yet) simply by applying for it out of college or E5 and below.
Guess you've not heard of the previous flying warrant program circa 2007.
Or the program for IW warrants.
Or the current Cyber Warfare Warrant Officer program and the reason they brought back the W-1 rank after 44 years.
EDIT: Aaannnnnd...Fester beats me to the punch by seconds!
More goodness ?
Wow!
