    No, not prior enlisted. commissioned in early July through the PLC program. I am going to work with the local OSO here in Fairfax after the holidays are over and I will see if he can do anything. One guy from my office got moved up to april but apparently it is mostly luck of the draw if you can get that

    Congrats! I went to OCS at Quantico back in 05. Shattered my Tibia and was DQ'ed. I got accepted to my local AF reserve unit while I was recovering, I regret that decision. Should have gone back to Quantico. Best of luck to you.
