Finally!
Completed an hour worth of paperwork today and will don the Dress Blues tomorrow for the official transition to Ensign! I can't wait! As it turns out, my entire family is coming. Mom and dad will put on the soft shoulder boards, big and little sisters will uncover the sleeve rank and boyfriend will put on the cover. It seems so silly, but I'm so excited!
Is there anyone else out there still waiting for FINSEL or DOCS?
Oh, and for anyone whose interested in timelines, here's mine:
2/18/2009 Contacted (current) recruiter
2/24/2009 First Interview
4/18/2009 MEPS (Found PQ'd) (NW district does MEPS prior to the board for efficiency)
5/6/2009 two more interviews
5/27/2009 Submitted packet to Supply Board
7/27/2009 Supply Board met
8/10/2009 Received notification on acceptance
**wait for it**
12/21/2009 Scrolls come back
**wait for it**
2/8/2010 Final Select letter in! (dated 1/28)
2/9/2010 COMDOCS in!
2/18/2010 "deskside commissioning"
2/19/2010 Official Commissioning!
(note, it too literally one year to the day to complete the process!)
