Hi. I would like to request some guidance on how to handle my OCS waiver situation (Age for SWO and TIS for IP). I have a branch DH (LDO/6180) that didn’t recommend my waiver request for CO endorsement due to this reason:
“Thank you for taking the time to discuss your intentions to apply for OCS. To be fully transparent, I did not recommend you for OCS based on your qualification status (CSOOW, ADWC, & CICWS-->CICWO) and below level of knowledge of the SWO (1110) & IP (1820) designators.”
I even told him that I’m not applying LDO, which has a discrete requirements. I also attached all the applicable instructions (OPNAVINST 1420.1B and Program Authorizations) to the waiver endorsement request. Currently, the request is still routed to Admin review.
Thank you for your support!
