My experience with the Navy so far has been a complete roller-coaster. In a nutshell, it's been like this:
- Finally get in contact with and meet an officer recruiter in Seattle. Yay!
- One of my profs is dragging his feet on my letter of recommendation. Boo.
- Did well on my ASTB and my package is ready to submit. Yay!
- February boards are canceled, so now the anxiety of waiting will be dragged out until March. Boo.
- GOT PROFESSIONALLY RECOMMENDED PILOT, FLIGHT OFFICER, AND SURFACE WARFARE! YAY!
- ....wait three months for MEPS. Boo.
- Make it through MEPS with a few disqualifications, but the doctor seemed sure I'd get waivers. Yay!
- Boyfriend "deploys"; same day recruiter tells me I can't join the Navy. BOO.
- In touch with a new (competent) recruiter in VA, and two positive evals. Yay!
Waiting on getting the evals to my recruiter and hoping he gets them submitted quickly so I can be re-instated in my billet now. And holy shit do I have a lot of work to do for my PRT.....we'll see where this goes. I'm pretty tired of banging my head against a wall on this...I just want in!
