I havent heard anything yet but my sgt said no news is good news and not to worry i should be good and so im just waiting right now for the cmdr's call that i'm in

[Brian101193]

What's your name? The list is already out

[Dmurray]

The length of this thread still amazes me.

[Tradewinds]

So Lindsey, do we all get to call you linz now.

 

The staying power of this farce is what amazes me.

[Shindig]

I havent heard anything yet .... Does it take this long i thought the board meeting was done and Im just really worried now bc I left my sgt a voice mail but no answer ... been having trouble getting to sleep and night quill not working

[Velocity173]

If it's taken this long it's a good sign. Usually means you've been selected for distinguished honor grad based on your application.

[Brian101193]

You had a great run shindig, but the jokes over.

[Tradewinds]

Shin....can I call you Shin?, just have your Grandpa read you a bedtime story, that should help you sleep.

yeah but nobody says ...my dream is to shoot people in the face...but so many say my dream is to fly....so why are so many in the Army like not even aware of the woft program? I mean don't they see helos flying around everywhere and say to themselves...hmm, wouldn't that be cool?

 

 

When I graduated high school in 1986 I went to the Army recruiter and when I opened the door I said out out.... I want to be an Airborne Infantry......guess, what, I got my wish!

 

But, I always did want to submit my Warrant Officer packet....just never did. Got hurt bad in Alaska after 15yrs in the Infantry and had to get out. My 15yr old son wants to fly blackhaks, so when he is of age, I am sending him to get his private pilots lic......dont know if he is gonna go to school for 2yrs and go in as an officer, or serve his 1st yr as enlisted and have him submit his Warrant Officer packet...it will be totally up to him though, with the help from some of my buddies who i served with as enlisted that went Warrant, hopefully we can get him in to flying.

[ftgokie]

but how often do you get these thanks when walking around in your uniforms like at a store or mall etc ?? and how do you respond i mean do you just say you are welcome and thats it?

 

 

As a former Infantry Drill Sergeant... this gave me a chuckle

[Jberto89]

Just finished this thread. Don't know how I feel about anything anymore. Need a fresh start.

[Yamer]

Props for reading the whole thing

[eagle5]

51 pages! How do we know he read the whole thing? A test is needed. How many pushups could he do by page 28?

Where art thou Shindig?

[01CelicaGTS]

I feel as though this would be Shindig's attitude toward flying a helicopter.

They can kill you but they can't eat you- it's against the law. You got nothing to lose, keep trying.

There it is!

[Shindig]

the 2nd board

[eagle5]

There's always civilian flying. Call Boatpix.

[Yamer]

You'll automatically get a second look if you were fully qualified and not picked this board. What result did you get?
