Thank you!! I just could not wait to get home to post it. lol.

I'm going to Lackland. So does anyone know anything about Lackland? lol (I know full well who does!)

So when will this seem real?

I'm hoping we can do my commissioning when both my parents are in town for a wedding in April. But i'm not counting on that.

i too will be going to arizona for ntp right after cot at maxwell. i get the joy of doing it during the heat of summer however.

just a pointer for anyone looking to join or considering starting the paperwork - start the year before you graduate!

i started the whole process in february... of 2009. i finally got my cots date today. yes, it took well over a year to get this far and guess when my cots date is? august 23! over a full year after i got my rn license.

my recruiter seems pretty apologetic about the whole thing since it was originially going to be january, then february, then march.... and he has mentioned over and over that i would normally be headed for cots 2 weeks ago, its just they got so many nurses applying and they don't have enough seats per cot date to train them all.

i'm excited to be going to arizona for the ntp and then on to travis in san francisco bbut it is small comfort considering i've been basically unemployed for a year already and will need to scrounge up $2000 to cover cot expenses!

but enough negativity there, looks like a few of you are in the same boat and we can't do anything about it now but enjoy our extended spring break!
