Hi,
For anyone waiting and wondering where their packet and paperwork/orders are (Army), this is for you........
I was searching AKO for documents on accession time lines and found this helpful PPT (created 2004, but update 2008).
It is targeted to Amedd recruiters whose goal is to improve physcian commissions #'s, but it explains the whole recruitment process and lets you know what happens to your packet once it gets to HSD .............
This looks like the same process we all have gone through or are currently going through........of particular interest is slides 11,12, 17 & 18.......

Good Luck,

Woot woot!! Thats awesome! It is definately a painfully long time to wait, especially when you see others commission at the same time as you get their orders months before you do. I too was an HRC/AKO addict, checking multiple times a day, when I got my orders I fell off the chair!!
Good luck with your drills as I have my first one coming up the first weekend in April. Holy crap, I guess its time for surreality to depart and reality to set in!!
Hooah!
HOOAH! i've decided i am an internet junkie but in this case it paid off. i left approx. 1530 yesterday afternoon for a boyscout ski trip w/ 3 of my boys. i brought my laptop with me. and i will even admit i got a little bit of the chills when i powered her up and found a unsecured wireless network available . so i went on my AKO account to do my daily evening check and lo and behold there under documents were my orders. hallelujah and all that jazz!
Sign up for OBC as soon as u can, I am in for June.
SO if you put available ASAP and you get orders on 10 March does that mean you could in theory report to your new duty station 10 April? In theory of course I know so many variables could make your head spin. I am guessing if you put in for it than the military is thinking that you are thinking you are ready. Does that make sense? Is there an average length of time from when someone receives orders until they report to their first duty station?
