McNamara said:ETA: I followed a NAVPERS link from the Surface Warfare page and found a list on Bupers Online of the SWOs who were recently selected for redesignation to SPECWAR. Sure enough my acquaintance's name was there. I wonder why those results weren't listed along with the rest of the redesignation boards?
Being in the Staff Corps didn't seem to hurt when I applied.crest said:Does anyone have an idea of how many people are applying for sna and/or snfo in the lateral transfer boards? Does being in the Staff Corp make a difference? Thanks.
McNamara said:This might not be kosher, but could I just phone/email the SEAL officer detailer and ask him what I need to do? Needless to say I won't be anywhere near getting my package together for some time but I am trying to find out as much info in advance as possible.
When I did my lat transfer to aviation, I actually worked directly with the detailer; I never talked to an accessions person. Personally, I would just email the detailer, and ask for his help; you can find info at https://www.npc.navy.mil/Officer/SPECWAR/ContactInfo.htm (this is an unsecure page).Steve Wilkins said:The detailer is just gonna tell you to contact the Accessions person (whatever community you want to lateral over to). He'll tell you everything you need to do. You'll have to log onto BUPERS website at www.npc.navy.mil in order to get the contact info (email, phone number, name). If you can't log on, just PM me.
However, if you didn't know what I just told you, of course it is kosher to contact the detailer. Detailers are there to work for you.
That is very interesting. They must be doing thing differently and glad to see the change actually. Thanks for the info.Jeff29 said:When I did my lat transfer to aviation, I actually worked directly with the detailer; I never talked to an accessions person.
