"you can add a new version of your CV/resume or Essay, etc., with the date at the top and a statement to use this as your final version".  


I don't know if you were wondering if you could but this is from a recent email. I haven't resubmitted my CV though.

I got notified as well that I was selected! My recruiter said about 60 were on the list. I know someone in the program this year and they said there's 34 in their cohort. I wonder how many active duty and DA civilians they're going to pick.

60 civilians on the list? or a mix of civilians and current service? Also there were only 12 civilians in last year's cohort out of the 34!
