I am (most likely) going to find out tomorrow if I got selected to attend Air Force Officer Training School. Coincidentally, it had to happen at the same time that President Obama is visiting, which means that I won't be able to enjoy his speech because I'll be constantly checking my phone waiting for my recruiter to call/email.

(insert comment about how it's impossible to enjoy any Obama speech here)

So, random curiosity, does David Crane of Defense Review know anything about what he reports on, or is he really a complete joke like almost everyone seems to think?

Sadly, it is not to be. At least not yet. I was a non-select for Non-Rated Board 13OT03. From what I heard, the selection rate was only 16% this time around, and they took almost nobody whose degree was not in a technical or physical science-related field (I'm a social scientist by training). Damn sequester...

Guess I'll have to wait 180 days to apply again. I'm also probably going to try the Army and Navy.

So I was just given an entire Air Force track suit complete with two pairs of running shorts and a pair of AF-issue boots (only the jacket fit me), four old patches (two branch tags and two Airman First Class rank patches), a set of A1C rank pins, an Air Force training ribbon, two name tags, and a CD case with several movies and music CDs in it.
