FY14 Supply DCO Commissioning Thread

Yeah, being an ENS is sorta' like having VD. The upside is, though it take 18 months... the cure is permanent, and you can't pass it on to others!

I'm going to respectfully disagree with the cure part. It is a bit like mono, you are always a carrier. I am living proof of this as I caught it from PenguinGuy!

Touche'! But like shingles, once you've had it... you're immune!

Looks like I'm going to meet my recruiter Friday for the paperwork signing

It will be the BEST 8hr round trip drive I've made in a while.

I commissioned today. I am officially an Ensign.

Congratulations, for only tonight, you will be at least TIED, for the title of "Juniorest" Officer in the U.S. Navy. You'll never be able to savor that honor again... flaunt it proudly!

Congrats! Now the journey begins!

Congratulations!

Thanks!

It was actually pretty cool. My father-in-law made the drive with me just to get out of the house and he ended up participating in the "ceremony" with the recruiter saying the oath to him and him saying it to me and me saying it. Can't think of the word to describe that, but it was neat. He was in the Army in Vietnam.

Next FY 14 Supply DCO board is scheduled to meet in February. Get your kits in!

KIT IS IN!

Anyone applying to this Feb 14 Supply Board? Any ideas on selection rates etc. (Basically does anyone have any good airwarriors gossip) haha.

My application package is also in. Scuttlebutt is that there would be fewer spots this year, like 45. My recruiter has no specifics. Last year the Jan Board picked something around 80. Contracts experience is still desirable.

 

[RaginCajun]

Last board 60 of us were selected.


ETA: Good luck to those applying!
