I think this is what they tell the folks right before they go through SERE.STA-21NURSE said:
I suppose your all right. But the results didnt come out last year until the $th due to the hurricane postponing the board. Other than that, the past few years, the date has been the 13th of OCT. I guess with more applicants, it will take longer, but 3 weeks? Just agony to know that it is in a stack on a desk, and all it needs is a signature.

As October draws to an end, so do hopes of results this month. Fortunately, early action for most schools is in December, so we have a bit of leeway. I am actually a bit relieved that I can relax for the next couple of weeks without results looming on the immediate horizon.
To lighten the discussion, let’s get to know each other. How about posting your first name, rate, duty station and time in service? It would also be fun to hear why you want to be a Naval Officer.
I will start.

- I want to be an officer because I am moderately fed-up with the leadership examples set by many of today’s chiefs (no disrespect intended, just an opinion). With so many opportunities to effect positive change, I find the current enlisted khaki community is unwilling to lay their collective buttocks on the line and make a decision. I would rather make a decision and be wrong then stand idly by and make no decision at all. I want my opportunity to make a lasting contribution to junior sailor’s lives. While everyone in the Navy has the opportunity to effect change, an officer has the ability to contribute in a more global capacity. Money? No, I make plenty…. Power? No, regardless of rank the age old adage “power perceived is power achieved” applies…. Respect? No, respect is earned, never granted because of what is on one’s collar.

-Today isnt the right day for me to write this cause I will rant forever... I like the Navy but dont like the way some things are handled. I have a love of aviation and want to do it professionally, as well as carry on some family tradition of Naval officers.

I dont know if anyone has noticed, but it the results link on the STA website is not responding. I can only hope that it is being updated today, before the CNO goes on leave. Probably just a malfunction and getting my hopes up. Oh well!

I am actually a citizen of Dubai, UAE. I was deployed out to the gulf a few years ago. While in port in Dubai, I had a family emergency that required my return to the US. Well, before I could leave the country via the Dubai airport, I had to immigrate INTO the country. Weird, huh?
Is the Seaman Center still arround? I had alot of wild times there... with the British Navy.

Just called my CC. He has heard nothing.
I didnt call anyone, they called me. At first I thought it was for some CC stuff because I am a Departmental CC, but then he started asking if I submitted an officer package a while ago. I thought it was the CO who is supposed to tell you, but with the size of my command who knows. Personally I am waiting to see something in message traffic. I thought I would pass this on to see if anyone else heard something.
