Ah, ok. I wasn't aware of the uninterrupted service wicket. I was inactive reserves, so that probably doesn't count.
According to the Navy/MC Awards Manual, up to a 90 day break in service is allowed. It also says midshipman status at the USNA counts if prior service, but no mention of OCS. However, I'd assume enlisted status while at OCS would count, so as long as you went to OCS within 90 days of separation (I don't know if you did) you should be good.

I recommend you google the Navy Awards Manual and look into it yourself. You should be familiar with that pub as an officer anyway.

I know there is a thread for the chain of command already but no one on it actually seems to know which chain of command to study. Does anyone that had already been to OCS know if the chain of command on the main website is the proper one to follow? I understand I'll be given a list when I get there but the more I can study ahead of time the better.

Thanks

Good deal. Thanks. I'll be up in Jax for a concert most likely after I'm sworn in but since I don't have a CaC I most likely can't go on base for anything right?

Go talk to an officer recruiter to find out. Even then, nothing is guaranteed either way. You could have great credentials and get turned down or the exact opposite. No one is going to be able to tell you something like "you have a 63% chance of being accepted."

Your package is super very competitive right now, your chances still depend upon ratio of qualified applicants v slots available, on a given board. Add any other notable personal accomplishments (community involvement, volunteerism, Eagle Scout etc.). Your interview with Supply O-5 a big plus for Supply. Good luck!:)
