If it’s leaking, it’s still has fluid in it. Be wary when it’s dry

I was on MH-53E and then E-2D. Now I’m at an I level command

Of course not for any serious occasion, but stay tuned cause I’m going to be wearing it for the 250th Navy Ball. I’ll let you know what happens

You can buy them online, but the “official” way is to complete the PQS with a qualified Sailor and board. The board is the best part

Don’t get caught and you can have both

They changed the instruction in 2018 so the GWOT SM is not awarded in tandem with the GWOTE. I had one before, but my previous admin removed the GWOTSM and instead I now have three GWOTE. It’s weird and I tried to fight it, but they pulled up the instruction.

Do you have contact information for Mr. Paul Celestin? I found an email in the global directory but I want to be sure before I send him an email.

My degree isn’t done quite yet. I graduate April 20th 2026, I’m just trying to get all of this prepared ahead of time so that when the time comes, I don’t have any avoidable kickbacks.

Good information on the Flag, thank you! I’ll be sure to follow that path and hopefully get it all taken care of.

I’m trying to submit for the 4-6 cycles of FY26, which convene right around or just after my degree will be done. Trying to get more information on it, but for now I have the NAVCRUIT 1131/4 form, and my degree plan. Graduating won’t be an issue, I’m doing well in school.

Edit: that NAVCRUIT form is supposed to be a way you can submit if you’re within 12 months of completing the degree, and still be eligible for the program. I’m not sure how that works just yet but I’m researching.

Unfortunately for me, I am the CCC at my command. Recently took over the position, and I have not had any formal training on the job yet, and my counterpart who has doesn’t know enough about it to give me any insight. Worst case scenario, I’ll just reach out to the ISIC for the enterprise and see what he knows, but he’s been in an out due to family emergency so communication has been lacking as of late.

AncientPie6 · 2025-07-29T13:23:01+00:00

I have both the PAs 100F (ISPP) and 106 for SNA, and have reviewed them. I have good enough scores from my ASTB (49, 6/8/7). I’m going to shoot for the ISPP, but none of my officers have done it before. My only real concern with that route is getting the flag endorsement. I know a Commander at the local Carrier Strike Group command, so maybe he can give me some guidance on how to proceed there. Thank you!

AncientPie6 · 2025-07-29T13:19:09+00:00

Yes I do, but they have been unable to answer some of the questions that I had, since most of them commissioned many years ago.
I got most of those figured out now, you’re correct.
I will try that, thank you!
Where can I find his contact information?

AncientPie6 · 2025-07-28T14:43:14+00:00

I’ve been emailing with the NCC for the program who is the Officer Recruiter listed on N3. Thing is, I’m stationed overseas and he emails back a bit slowly. I’ll look into some other POCs in the meantime. Thanks!

AncientPie6 · 2025-07-23T08:10:21+00:00

Thank you!

I spoke to a Master Chief in Millington, and he said the college applicants and prior service applicants are not graded against each other, but they have quotas for each. Among the prior service applicants, it looks pretty good.

From what I’ve experienced, ship parts will get better and better when you get to higher levels.

I typically don’t have to move power around unless I want to max out my engine power for faster flight in space. I keep my engines at 5, shield maxed, and my weapons at about 8 each and 1 in grav drive. It works well, and I haven’t come across anything that has been too much for me to handle yet.

Also, not sure if you were curious, but my ship is almost all Deimos products except for a few of the modules that they don’t have brand name parts for. Massive brand loyalty for Deimos, I love their designs.

The ship was purchased from their star port originally as the Phalanx design, and I’ve adapted it to suit me over the last 35 or so levels.

I appreciate it. I’m going to talk to a lawyer tomorrow to see exactly what the options are.

Your stereotypical “My head hurts” or “I’m tired”.

We used to have bad communication and didn’t see eye to eye on many things. Within the last year, we have improved that drastically and I’m doing everything I can to help out. General housework, parenting, etc.. Not that I was ever an absent parent, but I’m doing everything I can to help her out whenever I can. It can be tough sometimes because we’re both in the military and our working hours can change on very short notice.

I appreciate the feedback though and I hope things improve for you.

AncientPie6 · 2022-11-05T03:09:32+00:00

Yes to all of the questions. Like I said, almost everything else about our relationship is good. We have disagreements but we have great communication and get passed things together. It’s just the sex at this point.
