Navy Pilot/ NFO "Rolling" Boards MAR/APR 2013

[Mr Spenz]

Or how I felt after my OR asked me to get an attachment to my DD 370 which was already signed signed again.

What happened with your reference?

What happened with your reference?

Nothing was wrong with it. The 370 was filled out correctly, the attached recommendation letter to the form had to be signed as well. But I'm ok with it, got it sorted out.

Really? I did not know that was required. My recruiter had no problem taking my letters as long as the DD370 was signed.

 

[RiseR 25]

I dunno, I just did what was asked because I figured the board will examine the application thoroughly. After I thought about it it could only help because it basically makes it an official recommendation with a signature.

I wouldn't take what BzB says seriously.

You're right. We shouldn't take a Naval Aviator with combat experience seriously... SMH

 

[RiseR 25]

All of the rumors being passed around at this point seem to indicate there will be. My OR believes that as well. If not, the scheduled one is in July I believe, and that would give me more time to PT All we can do is wait and see....

More time to PT is a good thing. All applicants will be expected to be in good physical shape upon showing up to OCS.

My OCS package went to the national office April 30th. Can't wait for another board.

 

[halfbreed83]

So word around the skuttlebutt is there is another rolling board, anyone have hard evidence on that?

 

[BleedGreen]

All just rumors at this point. What is known, is the purpose for the rolling boards are to fill the remainder of FY13's needs. With only two OCS class dates left for FY13, something has to happen pretty soon.

At this point i would almost rather not have a rolling board if i would only have two weeks notice...I heard the last fy13 OCS class date is June 23? I certainly would not turn it down but thats an insanely fast timeline....

What does that mean? Also when did you submit your package?

I would take a June 2nd date! I'm ready to go, I want to fly!

Think the needs for pilots for FY 14 are going to be high then if all their focus is on FY 13? By high I mean a high selection rate like these last few boards.

So word around the skuttlebutt is there is another rolling board, anyone have hard evidence on that?

I was told that my package moved from Pro board to an SNA board, an NFO board, and a Supply board as of last week(or so my OR says)

This seems like evidence of another rolling board.... However, I haven't heard anything definitive. It seems odd that all three communities would be conducting a board... But maybe they really want to fill those slots? I am with Navy squid, I have no idea how I can get all my stuff in one sock by June 23rd, with quitting my job, and getting my home ready to be left for 3 months!
