    Nice to know you have someone who is "watching" the scroll, or even the fact that you can see the progress of it. Our recruiter doesn't seem to be that connected. Wonder if that person is your...

    Thanks Eaglesfan, are you in the same boat as my wife, not going to COT but reporting to base? Is the delayed timeframe you spoke of your guestimate or the recruiters? Appreciate

    Turns out that when wife was sworn in the recruiter didn't have the active duty scroll so he signed her in as Reserve. Now have to do it again for real. Now recruiter says we are waiting on the scroll...

    Anyone have experience with housing at the base in Tampa Bay? Wondering if the actual time on wait list for base housing turns out to be what they say, currently 9-12 months. Anyone ever lived on base...

    Wife is wondering how long after people were told they were selected did they receive their orders in hand and also have people taken the oath. Maybe the question really is the sequence of things and...

    Thanks jfratian, great info and I will share with her. She does have almost 4 years of critical care, do you think with that experience it could still be a valid site? The Chief Nurse aid something...
