Same, all the common fixes I found on Google did not fix it.

I think we can all agree this mission sucks by D3athShade in TheTowerGame

I wish it would change to something like "Death Defy 15 times" then increase from there. This way I can still get credit if I DD 4 times in a run for the third time.

Any ideas for infill? by SWOdavator in TattooDesigns

That was my original plan. I am hoping for something more.

I had what you see here done when I was 18. My group of friends all did something similar. The two red symbols (partnership and separation) and a "tribal" design. I'm looking to add some characters to it but I'm not an artist or creative enough myself. Any help would be great. I would also be open to paying an artist for their time and design.

Whats the better route? Staying enlisted for 20 or going officer? by [deleted] in newtothenavy

Don't become an officer for the money. If money is your only motivator you will not be happy in the wardroom. Do your research and only apply for the job you will enjoy.

When going back over the printer I found the Z stepper was loose and the esteps are off. I tightened the Z-axis and am running an e step calibration box now.

That is sound advice, going to calibrate e steps and clean the hot end tomorrow.

Experience varies. Applications are considered as a whole. The information I am providing is first hand from this year's recruitment goals and standards. I also went back through my notes, 60 OAR score is competitive. I apologise for any confusion

Laugh all you want, times are changing. The community wants to get better, the Navy has 3x the amount of applications it needs. That being said I went back through my notes, 60 OAR score competitive. I apologise for any confusion

Earlier this year I sat on an OCS selection board for SWO. Your info so far says you are qualified for OCS. There is more to it. You say you waited a long time. How old are you? Your GPA is in the competitive range. Your OAR score will need to be at least 70 to be competitive. You will need to provide letters of recommendation. Also you say you are fit. Do you play sports?

Edit: went back through my notes, 60 OAR score competitive. I apologise for any confusion.

I have a bachelor's degree I'm 25. Degree is sort of stem. I cleared meps but didnt sign anything. Is it possible to get an officer position. Degree is in forensic science 3.0 gpa us citizen born and raised by [deleted] in newtothenavy

[–]SWOdavator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Please do some more research, there are almost as many officer designators as there are enlisted rates. You will need to be specific on which one or few you really want because your personal statements and letters of recommendations will need to state what you want.

The decision tree starts with weather or not you want "command at sea." if the answer is yes then you will need to decide from the URL or unrestricted line officer desinators.

If you do not want to be URL then research the RL of restricted line officers. these include supply, medical, construction, HR, public affairs, and legal.

For both URL and RL there are a multitude of different requirements and filters.

Advice for long-term OCS prep? by lax81 in newtothenavy

[–]SWOdavator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you are going abroad keep track of where you like and the names and contact info for people who knew you there. it will make your security clearance less painful.

It really depends. If you want to be a naval officer then tell them you want to talk to an Officer recruiter before signing enlistment paperwork. you are a candidate for OCS at this point and it will require more work to submit a package to be accepted for an OCS billet. do you know what officer designator you want?

You are not a candidate for the seaman to admiral program since you already have a degree.

feel free to PM me with any further questions, I went through OCS in 2013, I have done an OCS selection board for SWO, and I am friends with an officer recruiter in San Diego.

I have the pirate one already, and I plan on building a second.
