zab1001 said:There was recent thread over at baseops.net discussing the use of OTS as an "officer faucet". From what I gathered, when Academy or AFROTC numbers projections aren't meeting forecasted needs, they open more OTS slots to "off the street" guys.
That is exactly what the recruiting command is for. We are not even goaled for pilots this year because the Academy and NROTC are supplying enough to meet the demand. In the future when more piots are getting out and we have a greater demand, Recruiting will kick it into gear and bring us more.
