Default Latest update with smaller classes

Here is the latest update based on very limited info I am receiving. I reduced the class size to 55 per month total based on info from the SLC ALPA MEC meeting. Once again, this spreadsheet is based on rumor and conjecture so take with a huge grain of salt. I am not clairvoyant.

For those waiting in the pool, I wish you well and a short swim.

Thanks for the updated sheet Badger.

I'm an early June CJO and I was told to expect a class in August at my interview. We all know that isn't happening but with the latest info, I'm starting to wonder if I'll be in class this year.

Thanks to everyone who keeps sharing info here. I understand that there are no guarantees and training could change rapidly, but it is nice for all of us to have this resource to try to plan out our lives for the next few months.

Thanks for your help, this spreadsheet has been very helpful.

Can you change the black and red line (projected street number) to start at 0 for the 9/21 class since they are filling that?

There was also 0 OTS in the 1st Sept class. I bet Oct will be the same since that is the last class of Compass flows.
Thanks!

Bottom line, things change like hourly. I know you have heard it before.

everyone wants to start ASAP. I get it, I did too. Whether you are retired mil, regional, guard/reserve, or corporate, you want to get on the list and get some cash. With that bring said, The hard part is over! enjoy this time. Spend time with the wife and the kids! For those coming from the mil side, the transition/training is an asskicker. It doesn't leave much time for the fam. It was like UPT light. So..... hang in there, grow a sweet beard, chase the Mrs. Around the house, sleep in, drink beer. You will be here before you know it.

congrats on getting here and Cya soon!
This is a very good post. Waiting sucks but once you start training on day one your time with your family will be very minimal and you will be stressed out. Congrats to those hired

Gotcha, just guessing based on the post from a guy last week saying his friend was called for it...
