OCS SWO Board 10 Feb 20

[QuantumKeller]

I put that list out...but that was for OCS seats. Not SWO quotas. Sorry

Someone know what page that is on off hand, not wanting to look. Hoping to leave ASAP if selected.

Damn, that just crushed my soul. I feel like that is still a lot of available seats for it to not include SWO. The last board date for SWO was held on November 4th and a lot of people from that board got OCS dates for March. I would hope they didn't fill the quota for the year with one board date.

This morning I literally had a dream that I woke up to my recruiter calling me with a prorec Y only to actually wake up from my alarm clock. It’s getting real bad

I’ve been having dreams like that since the board started. It’s the most unfortunate thing.

Is it possible Paul is incorrect and SWOs are getting OCS dates?

Well I’ve heard many contradictory statements on this board. Like someone called Mr Celestin who said the boards have convened and all it needs is an admirals signature but today another member said they’re still working on the list which is only 80% complete. We were told last week the week before and we were told this week last week... So I think we should just assume no one knows anything

probably for the best

I know two spots at least should be open because two Sailors from my current command dropped out due to PFA failures at OCS.

Bad news for those Sailors...but good news for us...

This does not mean 2 spots opened up. They have already over selected for FY20 and have moved some of the FY20 selections to FY21 quotas.

Welp. Normally (of course right?)...I would use my CAC Email Certificate to get into the site mentioned earlier...but as the attachment shows, I cannot get through to it at the moment.

I threw that out there to give hope. I knew the two Sailors personally. One was a first class, the other a second class. My guess is that they did not prepare enough before the class convening date. It's too bad.

Well they didn’t deserve the opportunity and the process worked the way it should have!

Well, they must be doing something completely different compared to the previous boards. I just want to know the result so I can move on with my life. My PCS is on hold due to this board. Get selected, I stay at my current command until OCS ship date or Rota, Spain here I come.
