Just curious, not there yet,
Can someone please explain to me what the timeline looks like towards the end of your initial contract. Right now I'm looking at a 24-36 month Shore Tour followed by a 12-24 month Disassociated Sea Tour currently at the 4 year mark on the contract.
Questions to direct conversation:
-Where do the board (O-4 and ADHSB) looks fit in timeline wise?
-When at the latest would you 2FOS and then when would you be released from service? Mostly concerned with, coming from this angle, do you have to essentially serve more time to get to the point of 2FOS and subsequent severance pay?
Bonus Question:
-If you make O-4 are you guaranteed 20 or are there situations where the navy simply lets you go at 14-16yos? If you don't make commander you can attempt the Full Time Instructor route as an O-4. Where does that fit in with the board/career timing?
Again, not there yet. Keeping options open and pushing for O-4 until it comes time to make the decision. Just trying to figure out when that time is.
