why would he? isn't navy pay slightly better than marine corp? better planes. better life.Was the DOR a page 11, followed by an administrative ESEP?
Why don't you reapply marine corps again?

pretty sure everyone gets paid the same.....DOD wise.
And no, just looking into different options.
Basically this is what happened.
(was aiming for a ground contract)
Wednesday: Aviation slot opened up right before board. got the call asking if i wanted it. said yes. was told to take the ASTB on friday.
Friday: ASTB
Sunday: drove out to NAMI for Flight physical.
When you DOR, they wrote you a page-11. Unless Marine OCS has some weird form they do this for any school. A page 11 is an official counseling. Basically your batt co/xo probably sat you down with the gunny or master sergeant and said this meeting is because your DORing. In the page 11 they put all the details of your DOR and their recommendation moving forward. That page 11 is then attached with another form saying you're being Early Separated (ESEP) and the details/reasons will be on the page 11.
Do you have those forms? Or a form listing all that?
@jlayL5045
All pay is the same... regardless of branch
pro-tip... if you want grounded and got a call last minute asking if you wanted aviation... stick with ground... there was someone else out there who probably wanted that seat more than you. You dig?
what were the other 2 scores like brook? i' guessing you took them during your time in college, or have you been trying to apply for over 2 years now?
I took it pretty much simultaneously the first two times and did not study much between the first and second attempts. I decided I really wanted to make the Navy my life goal so I put A LOT of study effort into the final attempt and got a good score.
First score was 56 5/5/6
Second was 58 5/4/6....oops
No. I was told at the time that my scores were not competitive enough for NFO. My OR at the time wanted me to go supply or intel so recommended I retake the test for the third time even though I never really wanted to go any designator other than NFO.Did you ever apply? you probably could have gotten in with your first score and been in a great position. I'm surprised they weren't begging you to sign up for intel. What made you chose NFO over pilot, just curious?

Im in the same boat. I would love to be a pilot if my vision was up to par. I feel your pain.No. I was told at the time that my scores were not competitive enough for NFO.

Depth perception
Ya I had to get a waiver for my eyes... Meps said no, but Optometrist said yes.
Did you go get a second opinion with an eye doc? I know the navy has 3 different depth tests you can take. I'm not quite sure about what nami will allow.... but if it's those damn circles again i'm fucked.I'm glad I passed MEPS for the other eye tests but I still am iffy with one of the eye tests. I'm going to make a thread about it shortly. From what I've read, the flight physical at OCS is excruciating for any eye issues.
