OK,
I talked to LCDR Clinton at OCS (XO I think). He said that a class needs to be 16-20 people to start up. Without that many it would be impossible to stand watch and perform senior class duties (indoc for new classes). He informed me that the Nov 24th class will probably roll into the Dec 8th class. He did say that the Dec 8th class was a go due to the large class sizes in January. For all Jan classes (three of them), they all have 60+ people. Problem is that 60 is the max OCS will put in a class, or so LCDR Clinton said. SO that is the latest and greatest. He didnt say anything about the Nov 9 class. However, with only 9 people being in it maybe they will take people from the last oct class or... roll to Dec? Dont know, but if I was in a Nov class, I would be asking some questions. LCDR Clinton said that CNRC has the final word on when they send people to OCS. Hope this helps and doesnt freak anyone out.
