A Navy Veteran Is Determined to Find His Own Way Through PTSD—Without VA
I struggled to keep a job. I started using my GI Bill for nursing school, just to end up too depressed to continue. I felt, and sometimes still do, like any day now I’ll just wake up back on the ship. After a year or so, I couldn’t take it. I tried VA. The first psychiatrist I saw diagnosed me with PTSD like it was the common cold, dismissing me with an Ambien prescription. It helped, but I was afraid of becoming dependent, so I never refilled it. Other therapists were quick to push religion, which doesn’t align with me. Aside from that, their help was mostly handouts and suggestions for activities like equine therapy. -

The MACO program is available to E-6 and senior Active Duty and Training and Administration of the Reserves (TAR) members in the Information Systems Technician (IT) and Cyber Warfare Technician (CWT) ratings. It is designed to educate students on a range of operational and technical topics in defensive and offensive cyberspace operations, including computer network attack, active and passive defense, exploitation, cyber analysis via automated and manual toolsets, operations, policy, and engineering. 3. Applicants must meet the following eligibility requirements to apply: a. Must possess a Bachelor of Science degree in a relevant technical field including, but not limited to, computer science, electrical engineering, and information or engineering technology. The degree must have been awarded by an institution of higher learning, with Institutional Accreditation recognized by the U.S. Department of Education. To meet NPS academic requirements, performance in technical courses, including mathematics, must be exemplary. b. Must be E-6 or senior to be eligible and within one's 12-month orders negotiation window, commensurate with course start dates of January 2027 or July 2027. c. Per reference (a), candidates must be eligible to incur a 5-year active-duty service obligation by reenlistment or extension of enlistment prior to NPS enrollment. Selectees will be required to reenlist more than 1- year earlier, if they are unable to satisfy the 5-year obligated service requirement. Per reference (b), payment of the selective reenlistment bonus is not authorized for selectees who reenlist for the purpose of meeting the obligated service requirement. d.

To obtain a conditional letter of acceptance, applicants should apply to NPS at https://nps.edu/web/admissions/apply. Once registered, select Applied Cyber Operations, curriculum number 336.

NPS applications must be submitted to NPS no later than 31 December 2025. Applicants will be notified by NPS via e-mail regarding their conditional acceptance. Prior application submissions to this program do not disqualify an applicant. However, applicants who did not receive previous conditional acceptance from NPS, and have no additional academic qualifications, should not apply again, as the academic standards have not changed. 4. Application letter template may be obtained by contacting the NAVIFOR MACO Program Coordinator via email NAVIFOR_MACO(AT)us.navy.mil. Completed applications must be sent via encrypted e-mail or DOD SAFE (https://safe.apps.mil) to NAVIFOR MACO Program within two weeks of notification of conditional acceptance by NPS. 5.

As full-time students, Sailors will be required to carry a full academic load year-round. Degree requirements shall be completed in 15 months. Per reference (c), E-7/E-8 selectees enrolled in the MACO program are eligible to submit an Exception to Policy for promotion; approval authority resides with Chief of Naval Personnel (CNP). 6. Selection results will be disseminated via official e-mail from a Naval Information Force (NAVIFOR) MACO Program Officer. Due to the highly competitive nature of this program, notification of selection via official email is a binding commitment which selectees must accept or decline within five working days of receipt. 7. Graduates of the MACO program will earn the H07A Navy Enlisted Classification and should expect to serve in a utilization tour immediately following graduation. Graduates will contact their respective Detailer 6 months prior to graduation to negotiate follow-on PCS Orders. 8.
