Sorry for lurking so long. Been keeping up with this forum for I want to say 5 years now. After being up for chief so many times now I have a lot of negative thoughts about the selection process and how Submarine commands specifically prepare their sailors to be selected. However, this year is the first year the odds have been truly stacked in my favor as an ITS and am hoping for a little redemption. Anxiety has kicked into 6th gear and next week isn't coming fast enough.

when you think about a selection board you have to realize its mainly your record.  BOL, NSIPS, NDAWS is what should be perfect.  Evals should be the main focus with qualifications, and this should al

Me not being in the NSW rating makes it a bad example? Making Chief is about leadership and SSP, regardless of WHAT RATE YOU ARE! I didn't say quotas weren't neccessary or need to be taken away I said they are a forgotten factor in determining who makes Chiefs. Because on the Other hand, if a quota for a particular rating is 0%....noone is making Chief regardless of how strong their write up is. next time dont be so sensitive  and read my whole comment.

If the point of your OP was to say "don't forget that if a rating is 0% nobody is making chief, and if it's 100% then everyone is making chief" then I guess I misread it... I took it as you were complaining that An EOD tech shouldn't get that quota if your write up was better... Which is where I would immediately question what any of us regular navy do that would justify that..

Thanks. I figure if I do not make it this year I need to reanalyze the last 15 years of my service. I assure everyone its not just quals they care about because I have been done with those years ago but still haven't been selected.

No leave for this guy, just a liberty port right when the results come out....so it's either liberty or being a select.  Either way, I just want them to come out.

Nothing wrong with being on deployment when the results come out!  I would probably prefer it that way actually....

We are getting a very similar vibe from our chain of command.

 

 

 

 

Regardless of when, everyone enjoy the weekend; hopefully it's the last one we all get to enjoy until Sept 16th.

Nonsense, If your name is on that list make sure you enjoy every minute of Season. It will only happen once don't look at it like you're going to be miserable for the next six weeks. It will be what you make it.

I get it, I have nowhere to go or do, so there's more time to concentrate on the tasks they'll give me if i do get selected, but that also mean that they have 24 hour access to me... :blink:

 

No escape!!

My Master Chief told me yesterday to make sure my wife has his number to call him if anything is needed from him or his wife for the next month and a half and to ensure she understands that it is he who will be keeping me from her and the kids. Its comments like that that I cant help but get excited. I just hope and pray all the build up from him and my other chiefs isnt for nothing. At least I know I have a lot of strong support from my superiors. ~6 days everyone. I for one am going to try and finish some projects at home and get in as much family time as possible this weekend. Looking forward to us all starting a NEW chapter in our Navy careers this week.

My wife has me finishing up her classroom (elementary teacher) this weekend just in case. How does this site work when results come out? Does everyone announce their S or N? Just curious.

everyone does their congragulatories for those selected and lets the forum know if they got the "S" or "N"...last year, i was on the down side of it...praying for a change this time

      Navy asking Congress for $5.7B in emergency submarine funding

      WASHINGTON — The Office of Management and Budget today delivered a request to Congress for approximately $5.7 billion in emergency funding to account for unexpected “shortfalls” in the Navy’s Virginia-class fast attack submarine program, according to a senior Navy official. The emergency funding request was accompanied by a separate “anomaly” that would permit the service to continue funding the Columbia-class ballistic missile submarine program in the event lawmakers pass a continuing resolution prior to when government funding is set to expire on Dec. 20. (Anomaly is the term the Defense Department uses when it seeks permission from Congress to spend money outside the traditional constraints of a continuing resolution.)

      The Pentagon has revealed the existence of a forward-deployed task force in the Philippines focused on supporting Manila’s maritime operations in the South China Sea. Task Force-Ayungin, composed of American service members and named after the Philippine designation for Second Thomas Shoal, was seen for the first time on Wednesday during Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin’s visit to U.S. and Philippine troops in Palawan. “The task force is comprised of U.S. forces providing our Philippines allies with enhanced cooperation and interoperability for their maritime operations,” reads a Monday statement from Pentagon spokesman Maj. Pete Nguyen provided to USNI News.

      Get Your Updated COVID-19 Shot With TRICARE

      FALLS CHURCH, Va. – The new 2024–2025 COVID-19 vaccine is now available to TRICARE beneficiaries, at doctor’s offices and pharmacies. Getting vaccinated helps protect not just you, but also your family members and fellow community members. "The COVID-19 virus keeps changing. That's why we have a new vaccine to match the virus strains that are making people sick now," said Jeannine Pickrell, RN, Director of Population Health, TRICARE Health Plan, at the Defense Health Agency. "The benefits of getting vaccinated far outweigh the risks. Even if you do get COVID-19 after vaccination, you're much less likely to get seriously ill."
