They are useless because we continue to get the denominator wrong. When I was the OCM (cue the old guy music), I owned the stats and changed the denominator. The denominator was not the number of selects, but the number of people who shared the experience. X of 12 who were CRCs were picked, etc. Su...

you get it figured out, let me know. probably be able to find me in an FCA, or something joint. Yea, well, if we could have reasonably swung it we would be back somewhere joint again, too. I always said I'd never go to the mothership, but I also said that about a surface ship and that was one of th...

sum1: saw a friend describe CWA-66 mission as: 'to provide and deploy trained and ready cryptologic warfare officers and cryptologic technicians to support the collection and exploitation of targets in support of national signals intelligence priorities.' Because: "to create more CDR Command o...

More details on the new commands here....https://stationhypo.com/2018/08/10/cryptologic-warfare-group-six/ Zero details on the new commands at that location. If you want to read a history of CWG-6 and/or NSGA and/or NIOC Maryland, go there. If you're looking for anything else (like me), it will hav...

Just found out today that 10th Fleet stood up three more commands.

Relevant changes or more unnecessary reorganizations? I have no idea what they're supposed to do, so I'm curious to hear from someone who does.

Wondering how much that will impact our community, since we're continuously told that we don't have enough officers in the O-4 and above inventory.

The 1810 community has had people in the USNA PMP/JPMP program for years and I believe we also have a couple of billets at War College, but those individuals are somewhat constrained by the college curriculum. JPMP, yes, but not full PMP. And there are two billets (that I'm aware of) at the War Col...

Seems fewer milestones would produce quicker O5 retirements. Or maybe the detailers would be willing to entertain allowing some of our officers to do other things, like attache gigs or general staff tours. Although, now that I say that, fewer milestones doesn't necessarily mean fewer O-5 billets to...

Saying we have too many milestones is different than saying only Flag signed FITREP positions should be milestone. Who said they should be Flag signed FITREP positions? No brainer - milestones should be signed by flags. Personally believe we should have fewer milestones, screening should be a scree...
