They are all lying to you collegeboy! It is SUPER difficult to get jets in the Marine Corps, I promise. Probably the worst route to go of the 5 services. The only hope I have left (I'm a Marine) is that there is a helo slot available when I finish primary. Now, the Navy and the Coast Guard both have LOTS of jets and very, very few helo's. You'd really have to be an idiot to get helos and not jets, I can tell by your previous posts that you are of ABOVE average intelligence and getting jets wouldn't be a problem for you. I would also be careful about going to your Congressman. That is only for the brave at heart. You better really believe in yourself and your aspirations to go that route. They don't just accept ANYBODY. Good luck!
Oh yeah, I almost forgot! When you go to see your Congressman (if you're dedicated enough to attempt that route) be sure to use some of that Reverse-Psychology on him/her. You know what I'm talking about! Politicians are suckers for that stuff!

collegeguy,
with your credentials, i think you could skip OCS altogether. in fact, you might be able to go in as an admiral. you might also have a shot at becoming chief of naval operations before getting out of flight school if you try hard enough. also, you might also want to consider applying to NASA for a shuttle pilot position. i hear they actually prefer psychology majors. why would you want to fly the
f/a-18 when you can have a shot at the space program? hope this helps.

Shoot! Why the hell am I messing around with this NROTC bullS**t!
Collegeguy, its a good thing you've got all this support. At least now you won't become a 'Naval aviator' the hard way.
Oh, and here's another last piece of advice...invite your recruiter out for a quick game of volleyball. Wear only jeans, aviator sunglasses, and get yourself a pair of dog-tags. He'll not only be impressed with your initiative to save the Navy $ by having your dogtags already, he may just be able to waive API altogether after witnessing your physical prowress on the volleyball court.
Oh and by the way...your football team is always welcome back to Norman, OK anytime. Our redshirts enjoy the practice.
Boomer.....Sooners.

Yeah, and where are they in the standings?

Eaaaassssyyyy! I didn't say anything about standings now, did I? Besides there is a glimmer of hope that we could come of this season with the SEC W championship! It's all about character -<a highly exaggerated rolling of eyes>-. I was just clarifying that in NO WAY am I a Sooners fan. Having lived in Fayetteville for several years, I never found ONE thing about OK that I liked. But I could fill up the hard drive on my computer with nasty things to say about it.
