service selection (Spring '08)

[phrogpilot73]

Actually, MLT was 3 weeks at OCS and 1 week at TBS. I remember because I got fried there.

When you say Leatherneck became required, you mean just for the folks that wanted to go USMC, right?

Yeah, I neglected to mention the 1 week at TBS. For me, it was a waste of time. Actually, MLT in general was a waste of time.

Yes, I meant that Leatherneck was required of dudes that wanted to go into the Big Green Machine...

Future Aviators

I just heard the other day that I got selected for aviation...so I know that I won't be headed to Pensacola right away but does anyone know what, if any, training we do over the summer?

1390, so I'll see you down there!

Just a little friendly advice though, try to search for threads before creating your own. Some people get really frustrated on here. No worries though.

Looks like us at Auburn were the among the last to hear, but I'll see you in P'cola as a 1390

Unfortunately, those at Penn State have not gotten any information about pilot/nfo selections. I think all the officers are on leave or something...

Finally heard, 1370!

I'm curious, has anyone not gotten their first choice or heard of someone that hasn't?

 

[redmidgrl]

Everyone got their first choice from GW NROTC even our SEAL-hopeful... We're just waiting for the rest of our Nuke-hopefuls to interview.

 

[DMace55]

Just got word this morning...selected for Pilot. It was my first choice. So far I know, of the 5 that applied that 2 including myself got selected for pilot.

Stats check

Does anyone have any info on the total NROTC selections for FY08, i.e., what percentages got SWO, Aviation, USMC, SEAL, Nuke, all others?

Actually, they've changed it here now. They really upped the amount of marine billets out of the academy this year, so leatherneck wasn't mandatory for the first time. I know at least 15-20 people who got marine corps without going to leatherneck. Word on the street is they're going to increase the number of marine billets out of here by at least an additional 30 for the class of '09. Anyway, I got 1370 too, so I'll see y'all down in p'cola!

So get this...my name got pulled from the list because the F-ING nukes thought I looked good on paper. They held my designation because they wanted to ask me if I wanted nuke. Jee...maybe it I wanted nuke I would have put it on my service selection form now I have to wait till the next board... WTF...F-ing nukes.

Have you heard anything yet? It looks like I'm in the same boat and I haven't gotten much in the way of word on when I'll actually get selection back.

 

[whalepelt]

epps,

I just heard today that I (unofficially) picked up pilot. If you haven't heard anything yet, you might be able to get some news if you go politely and respectfully annoy the crap out of the folks at your unit.
