    OCS Is it possible to go from Cryptologic Warfare Officer (CWO) to Maritime Cyber Warfare Officer (MCWO)?

    I am wondering if it is possible to go from CWO to MCWO. If so, what is the process supposed to be? Do I have to retake OCS as well? If not, can I eventually transfer to a place where I can do cyber operations in the Navy? If so, where? What is the process?
