Yeah I have the officers info as well and the judges. The dmv is just retarded. Besides it was a “misunderstanding” on the officers part. I got an apology and a dog tag of the pd

Fucking retarded

I mean he doesnt need a secret clearance to commission yeah? Unless hes like commo or medical of course

Not sure about Florida, but as I mentioned previously you definitely need to get copies of all paperwork showing the charges were dropped and a mistake was made

Yeah, all contracted cadets and commissioned officers get secret clearance.

So that’ll likely pop up

Ah, didnt know that

Fancy stuff

I will for sure. But whereas mos goes based on my paperwork I’ll either go infantry or field intel officer

And that shit takes forever, like dodmerb wavers

Infantry gang

My dad has clearance and when he had to renew it they interviewed me and all my friends and their family’s.

Your MOS commissioning is based entirely on the OML list from that year, which combines grades, PT test scores, and a rated advanced camp experience as well as a new system that involves interviews and talent assessment battery tests.

That sounds complicated as shit

So you get to rate all 16ish Officer branches on a scale of what you want and then you’re likely to get one of your top 3

Yeah he made sure that I knew that but if I qualify for those mos then he told me I’m almost guaranteed it

Not especially, the system is all sideways and fucky to make sure that the needs of the army are met

They don’t want all studs infantry and aviation and all dorks chem

Well I got it on paper.

So you can be a stud and get fucked

Not how it works fam

Some random ROTC recruiter has absolutely no say over your branch on commissioning

Well I’ll be having a convo with him then.

You’re unlikely to not get what you want if you’re fully qualified, but it still happens.

I had three buddies get infantry that wanted aviation/signal

Poor bastards

And infantry is much more competitive than signal, so it didn’t make any sense to me

Needs of the army come first

Maybe pushing them for ranger tabs n shit?

Yeah well as long I get a fucking tour to satisfy my family I’ll be happy

So I don’t get Harrased at Christmas dinners and stuff

Its not all up to stuff man

There are tabbed infantry officers that don’t get deployments in their first four years

You can’t control everything

Mhmm

We had our PL get fucked into an XO spot with only three months of line time

You can narrow the odds in your favor, volunteer for individual augmentee deployments, work with the AIM marketplace to try and catch a good position, etc...

But life works the way it works and you shouldn’t beat yourself up if the winds blow differently

Well idc if I get deployed but. knowing who my uncle knows he would do his best to make sure. Some like general or something from his time as a ranger

Hmm

Yeah, pulling strings can always happen. I had a friend going to Wainwright get his orders changed to the 82nd because of a family friend

But it’s also not something you can rely on
