Or because, y'know... he's "dead."

My point exactly and they will not replace him ? RIP

Or because, y'know... he's "dead."

He’s not really dead, he just failed to pass his last NATOPS check ride. He’s actually the suppo now for kings bay.

 

[NYHockey94]

Has any of the active duty selects received their Final Select letter?

Nope... still waiting.

Punched out once and screwed it up. They'll make anyone a SME these days, I guess...

Probably whoever instructed his last LPNV class.

My OR mentioned that ready-to-ship applicants may take priority over later shipping applicants, and that I may have to reapply for a board closer to my earliest shipping date (since I graduate in the spring).

I would agree with your OR. May is a long ways away and a lot can happen to an applicant (especially one that hasn’t graduated) in that time frame.

You’ll learn in the military it’s all about timing. Being in the right place at the right time. You will find this will work in your favor and become your worst enemy.

You have great scores and I’m sure if you don’t make this board you can chalk it up to your ship date needing to be much later. Nothing wrong with that.

Anyone receive their finsel?

Nope. Nothing yet. Still confused how some people have tentative dates like two days after prorec.

My OR said that the names are in the system with dates, but they're tentative dates until you get your FINSEL.

Oh that makes sense then. I peeked at the thread from last board and it was ~4-5 weeks after convene date most people got their FINSEL it looks like
