Extended Service Contract

[Ave8tor]

Hey everyone,

I was wondering if there is a MARADMIN or MCO somewhere that states the extended eight year service commitment for a fixed-wing aviator. I need to show proof to my mortgage lender that my current commitment does not end next October. My current command says it will update once I get to the RAG, but I will be closing (hopefully) before I check in. I tried looking on the usmc.mil messages page, but really have no clue as to where it might be published.

Thanks.

I found this:

Scroll to page 7.

You're the man! Hopefully that will be enough to ensure my loan goes through. I wouldn't be surprised if they asked for a document signed in blood stating that I intend to honor this commitment.

Uh... my orders to SERE/RAG specifically stated in them 8 years from the date of designation. Now Navy may differ from Marine Corps, but orders are orders. Do you not have orders yet?

I had to provide our mortgage company with a letter (on official letterhead) that said I'd be promoted on such and such a date and be paid such and such amount. They're pretty particular these days...

There should be a statement of understanding in your OQR that states that fact, and it's signed by you.

I could be wrong. It may only be in your flight contract package. Either way, that piece of paper is out there.

8 years for you?? Kinda sounds like you had the wool pulled over your eyes. Might wanna check again, and put down the beer this time!

It's been a while since I've thumbed through that thing. I'll have to check it out. Thanks.

When I first read the title of the thread, I thought you were talking about your Maytag Washing Machine....
