Has anyone applied for AMDO lately?

Nukumall, I wanted a change and the Navy offered it. I know everyone asks the same question, but I the opportunity to lead from the get-go is very appealing. I work with many AF officers, and I am sad to say that the firat 3-4 years (depending on career field) is spent power-pointing everyone to death. I now some of the same things will occur in the Navy, but i am assured to be on a ship where i will be performing my actual deployed mission day in and day out. Anyway, are you applying Navy or AF?

I have been accepted for AMDO, just waiting for a OCS class date. So, Navy. My reasons are the same as yours. I am in Space Command and 0-1 -0-6's do the same job I do, I even train them to do the job. Talk about a huge pay difference. My degree is non-tech and the Air Force thankfully did not want it. I am also looking foward to doing the mission from the start.

I am assuming you went to Embry-Riddle, as i did. I feel the same way about the AF. Did you make the June or July AMDO board?

I made it in the June board. I had PRk eye surgery and it is taking longer than normal for the Navy to issue me a waiver. I went to a private college in Colorado, Colorado Christian University. My degree is Computer Information Systems Management. I choose it because it had a nice one night a week 18month program. All adult classes.
 
Questions

If any of you has any questions about AMDO, my wife is at OCS now for it. I also work around a bunch of them, so if you have questions for them, I will pass them on and try to get you answers. For those who were selected already, I would say call your new detailer, he is a great guy and will really lay it all out for you.
