FY20 Oct. 28, 2019 SNA/NFO Board

[scissors]

Ah sh*t! Someone from 3/5? Keep calm everyone and don’t make any sudden or he’ll turn into a crazed libo risk and burn the whole place down ?

Couldn’t have said it better myself ?

While I'm waiting, I guess I can drop my scores in here...

Applying: SNA
OAR: 52
AQR: 6
PFAR: 7
FOFAR: 7
GPA: 4.0
Age: 23
Sex: M
Major: Political Science
Prior Service: N

I'm all nervous now, since I also applied for the SWO board and haven't heard anything from my recruiter. I guess I can take consolation in the fact that I have better scores than many who were selected, so I can just hope that my recruiter just didn't receive the results today.

Chill with that undergrad GPA man haha. Making me feel bad.

Haha sorry, didn't mean to flex. I don't know why, but learning in a classroom has always come easy for me, I just hope flying will be the same lol.

Nevermind..

If we're going for nice things to do while waiting, I'd like to recommend a series of Clancy/Griffin-style novels by Rick Campbell, for those who like that sort of thing:

1. The Trident Deception
2. Empire Rising
3. Ice Station Nautilus
4. Blackmail
5. Treason

The author is a retired submarine officer; [1] and [3] are mostly about submarines, but the other three also involve other parts of the Navy (surface, SEALs, aviation) - not much of the other branches, though.
(I saw [2] on a bookshelf in my recruiter's office and it seemed interesting, so I hunted the others down at the library.)

As for the other trend that suddenly seems to be happening with the new members posting their info:
SNFO/77/9/8/9/3.08/engineering/27
I believe I see in the spreadsheet one of the guys who worked with the same recruiter as me, so... hi.

If we're going for nice things to do while waiting,

Some good books I've read while waiting to leave for OCS (non-war books, sorry):

• Carrying the Fire by Michael Collins
• Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close by Jonathan Safran Foer
• Dreams from My Father by Barack Obama
• A Short History of Nearly Everything by Bill Bryson
• Anna Karenina by Tolstoy
