Ok I keep hearing different things. I know out of NROTC right now SNA is flight school plus 8. Is NFO flight school plus 6?
Clock starts from day you get your wings. Since I winged Aug 31, 2001, My commitment was up Sep 1, 2007.yeah, i think you're right. the time doesn't start counting down until you get winged. at least that's my understanding....
My SNA contract is 8 years for fixed wing and 6 years for helo.
The Navy can change my contract once I'm in?
Traditionally are orders 3 years in length?You're not "in" yet. You're commissioned, but that doesn't mean you've executed winging orders, which is where the commitment will be. So, in short, yes.
A commitment and orders are two different things. I've signed paperwork that committed me to two more years, but my orders have me going for three. When I execute the orders, I'm agreeing to another year of commitment. I'm over-simplifying it a bit, but you get the idea.
First two tours are (36/33 mo.). After that, it's usually 24 mos/tour.Traditionally are orders 3 years in length?
