It is nice for all these Freepers to be supportive and if you just wanted strokes for good intentions then I guess you’ve got them.
But as a former military recruiter (and the processes and requirements are more common than different) I can tell you that yours is an EXTREMELY uphill battle at best.
Hey, EVERYONE wants to be an office, right? Well you have to be very competitive. Being over age isn’t competitive.
OCS and OTS age limits are not as flexible as some seem to think. The services make the rules and stick to them and even among the fully qualified only the most competitive candidates are selected.
IMO, don’t count on OCS/OTS. Check it out but don’t count on it.
And if the recruiter encourages your application, then feel fee to ping me with a ‘neener neener’.
EE, I assume you have been out of the loop for quite some time when it comes to recruiting.
