Hello all,
I was selected for redesignation on the last board and wanted to introduce myself. I am currently an Aviation Operations LDO (6320) serving as an Officer Recruiter in Boston. I am very excited about my transition but have a few questions. I sent an intro email to the New Accessions Detailer but I know how busy they are and then add in the holiday's it may be a while until I hear from him.
-I still have 16 months on my current order...should I expect to finish up my time here in Boston or transfer to the next available IWOBC class?
-What is the normal (if there is such a thing) timeline for the redesignation to be complete?
-I know an IWO first assignment is usually at one of the four NIOCs but does placement at one of these locations dictate the follow on operational tour. For instance, I am very interested in the NSW and CommEval positions, is there a NIOC that feeds into one of these?
-As a former P-3 guy I am very interested in EP-3s but with the P-8 transition is this still a viable path? I hear the mission is going to be picked up by BAMS in the not so distant future.
Sorry for all the questions but any insight is appreciated. Thanks for the help in advance!
