For all you hopeful BDCPers and current BDCPers

[ducam23]

Hey Everyone. In light of my recent swearing in and my want to aide those not as fortunate yet, I have created a website(complete with forum) for everything BDCP. It's in its infancy (damn finals) but I plan on get much more going quickly, sign up and maybe we can make another airwarriors or usnavyocs.

Interesting idea. I'll keep an eye on it.

Good work man. Now that is dedication! Let me know if I can do anything to help you out. I am a fellow BDCP supply. Swearing in late December.

Thats right... those little falkers bite hard! We're really weird... we manage to lose the games that are a sealed deal... and take the games no one would expect.

I've made a few updates. The FAQ is now up with some general answers. Also I posted community overviews for all the designators. I also want to make people aware that if they get an applicant into BDCP then that current BDCPer gets a pay grade promotion. Take a look.

ya know... I've had 2 people make it to the physical and flunk out.... I guess engineers aren't in the greatest shape.

Maybe you have bad luck? Don't you make E-5 when you graduate?

 

[ducam23]

yeah when you graduate. but can get promoted to e-4 from e-3 by getting deans list twice in a row or getting someone into the program. And then e-4 to e-5 before graduate if you do the same thing. You can only do one once to get promoted though. So promotion after deans list twice and then a promotion for getting someone in. Come on people, you help others and others help you. Win-Win.

I think that you get paid as an e-5 no matter what when you graduate, by this I mean if you don't get another person in or you don't get dean's list twice, when you graduate you still get paid e-5.

 

[ducam23]

yeah no matter what you get e-5 when you graduate but if anyone wants it BEFORE they graduate those are the only two ways to be promoted.

 

[jg5343]

Unless, of course, you are prior service like myself. Then you get paid whatever rate you are going into the program.

 

[VetteMuscle427]

yeah... we get E-5 + BAH... between graduation and OCS... so we're taking a pay cut to go to OCS... well, those of us that aren't married.
