Sw7ft Posted August 12, 2016 Report Share Posted August 12, 2016 My ship date is September 26th, good sir.. I too was confused seeing the other dates that were being posted. I know Dmurray is way different.. Perhaps its because he has been through basic before? Yes, Believe he is coming in from Reserve, Prior service myself, so just going straight to wocs, which is nice. Wonder if you will be starting Wocs after christmas, given your basic will end right before the holiday. Are you shipping out of Tampa Meps?

USCav19D Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 Stringray is one of the several different groups of instructors that teach you primary phase. Your class will be broken down into two flights. For mine it was Stingray and Raven. Each has about 12-14 instructors and each instructor has two students. Stingray's flight commander is a man named Mr. Faust - he has a well earned reputation for not taking any sh*t from his students. As you can tell, several of us have been in Stingray flight. It's all determined by when you start and which flight is waiting for students. Stingray, for the moment, is still a TH-67 flight. Most of the IPs hate the Lakota and will retire before making the transition. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StockTrader Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 Interesting... Care to expand on said rumors Stocktrader?Stingray had the reputation of being really tough. While it was, we had a great time. The IP's we had were all great except for one or two. And those two just seemed to be pissed off at the world in general. Getting "Fausted" was just a way of saying you got called on for 5's and 9's. And if you knew them by like week 3, you had zero problems with him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USCav19D Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 Mr. G. Italian guy. He was awesome.He seemed pretty cool. The only one nobody liked was the German... Most of Stingray seems intent on retiring before making the switch to the Lakota. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V22GUNNER Posted August 18, 2016 Report Share Posted August 18, 2016 thebootler- There is a link on the warrant officer recruiting website under the packet submission tab on the homepage. There you find the link to email your updates. It works the same as when you submitted your original packet and they will email you back once the updates have been incorporated. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
