First sign of "good news" from my OR

[shotcalla10]

I just got an email from my Officer Recruiter and this is what he wrote...

"I want to thank you for being patient with this application package. I have verified that your application will be at the next Pilot/NFO board in mid-August. We should hear back from the board within a week after that.
As I mentioned, once they professionally recommend you for the Aviation Community (and if they don't, I quit!!!), we will need to complete the Medical Portion of the Application. I am sending you the Pre-Medical Screening forms that you will need to fill out before you can complete the medical portion. Please complete the DD Form 2807, DD 680 (only), and the Projection sheet. You can either fax these forms or drop them off as soon as you get a chance. Keep in mind that any "yes" answers will require medical documentation….(e.g. If you broke a bone at age 20, I will need documentation from your doctor)."

I must say he's a funny guy. He's been tremendously helpful with the whole process and he's definitely an extra motivation for me to do my best if I get the opportunity to be an officer, one more person I would half kill myself to not let down.

But of course I still have those damn Pre-medical screening and exams to get through if I am pro-rec'd... its gonna make me sh** my pants. BLEH!!! I'll keep you guys posted. Thanks AW for all your support.

Sounds like good news. Keep up with the good work and good luck to you.

He is correct and from what I know about you I expect to see your name on the list as well. GOOD LUCK and enjoy the wait!

Go ahead and get that medical knocked out as soon as possible. It sometimes takes a little while, and I've been waiting on getting back my blood work for a while now.

Good luck Shot... We were all there once before and know how you feel. It really pays off once you get the good news...makes it all worth while...

I am going to the august boards too for SNA. Let me know if/when you hear anything so I can know what to expect. I'll obviously do the same for you. I guess me might even end up at Pensacola at the same time.

 

[shotcalla10]

Thanks guys.

Lacasera, I believe we would end up in Newport, Rhode Island if we get accepted... no more Pensacola OCS. But yes, I will definitely keep you posted.

Newport is definite as the last class at OCS in Pensacola has already been on deck for a month now. Good luck with the process...I went through it all 2.5 years ago and it still seems like yesterday.....
