  1. Experience...How much is enough?

    I see what you mean about being independent and competent, but there isn't any circumstance that I could see in which I couldn't be competent in an area after 5 months. Looking at it from the...
  2. FY2014 Navy Nurse Corps Direct Accession

    Looks like the wait will continue. Now the question is...who is going to start the thread for FY 2016
  3. FY2014 Navy Nurse Corps Direct Accession

    I personally wouldn't even consider the reserves because like someone said, it's basically impossible to go from reserve to active. From my understanding, you can only apply to one branch at a time,...
  4. FY2014 Navy Nurse Corps Direct Accession

    He told me that they were not taking any new DA, and it doesn't have any impact on people that were part of the NCP since they were already pipelined in. It wouldn't hurt for you to contact your...
  5. FY2014 Navy Nurse Corps Direct Accession

    So, my recruiter called me earlier today and told me we had to update everything because my 6 month window was coming up. I asked him what the deal was with the numbers for 2014; he told me that from...
  6. FY2014 Navy Nurse Corps Direct Accession

  12. FY2014 Navy Nurse Corps Direct Accession

    I read that all board for October have been rescheduled, but no dates were released. Also, DoD civilians have or will report back to work, so hopefully that speeds something up. I haven't talked to my...
  13. FY2014 Navy Nurse Corps Direct Accession

    I started growing "an end of the FY beard", that now turned into a "kit to board beard". I think the wife wants the board to meet before I do lol. I wonder if any of the other boards for the Navy has...
  14. FY2014 Navy Nurse Corps Direct Accession

    Looks like we are being told the same thing. I was looking at the AF thread for 2014, and apparently they had their board and announce their selections on 10/21. I wonder why they seem to have the...
  15. FY2014 Navy Nurse Corps Direct Accession

    It may just be wishful thinking, but I just read this on foxnews... On Monday, the government slimdown enters its seventh day with hundreds of thousands of federal employees furloughed, national parks...

    Isn't that just some lovely news
  22. FY2014 Navy Nurse Corps Direct Accession

    My kit is being sent to the PM tomorrow, and I am hoping that process takes only a few days. Not sure how confident I am with that though, as they were the ones that delayed me going to the boards in...

  24. FY2014 Navy Nurse Corps Direct Accession

    navywife, I would be totally surprised if the numbers actually come out on the first. I mean, nothing really has happened the way they say it is supposed to, or in the time frame it is supposed to....
  25. FY2014 Navy Nurse Corps Direct Accession

    navywifeRN: My recruiter told me last year that the numbers didn't come out until late October, early November time. I don't know how that's possible since the board met before then, but that's what...
