    Holy Shizzzzz this is a long process. My file was just submitted to the Cheif Surgeon General of the USAF.

    Wait wait wait. Oh and now bonus money is all dried up. Oh well. Still want CCATT program. We will see what happens.

    I'm sure you've heard the standard "military" cliche.....hurry up and wait.

    Stay patient, I'm sure everything will work out for you. Keep us posted and best of luck going through the process.

    Well everyone it's been a long process but I finally got the call I was waiting for. Security clearance tomorrow then commissioning on Thursday!
    I ranked up to 1st Lt. USAF reserves, part of the 920th Medical Rescue Wing Cocoa Beach.

    It's been a long process, excited to start my military career.

    The 920th is a good unit...and in a good location...with some cool aircraft like my beloved HH60G Pave Hawk.

    By the way, you should more than likely be able to do some Active Duty work outside of your AFRC role. There is a need for CCAT folks moving folks in and out of theater. Check into..you will get real world experience..and unfortunately, a lot of it.

    Looks like you'll be leaving in just a few days. Don't stress, I saw plenty of the RCOT/COT folks around the OTS campus at Maxwell. Its a quick program and nothing like OTS/AMS. It was almost comical to watch enlisted OTS cadre "yelling" at commissioned officers/COT students. And I can say comical because I was enlisted before commissioning.

    Best of luck, you'll do fine. Just make sure your hat is on correctly and they will stay out of your stuff. There will likely be Majors and even LtCols going through RCOT that are doctors, surgeons, etc, with no military service so you will not be highlighted in any negative manner. Have fun!
