Yes, please let us know if they mention the size of the next class. I'm about 40 names away so I anticipate a month full of anticipation of whether or not I'll make the next class.

Wow, there are only a little over 100 people left on this list.

Ringer, nohook congrats guys, don't be strangers and remember that ANYTHING about late October/November you guys know what to do. Best wishes.
Donnie Gloves said
Sep 29, 2011
Yeah, I'm concerned on how they will break up those remaining 120 or so people. 80 for November, 40 for December, or 60/60, or 40/80, aghhhh
HIGH600s said
Sep 29, 2011
I think it will be 3 classes. remember, there are about 35 passovers with at least 20-25 getting cleared at the very end. Its more like 140. My guess would be 35 for november, 60 for December and who ever is left in January.
HIGH600s said

SO we are looking ay October 31st!

Sep 29, 2011
I was just reading the finest and it says that these guys going in are assigned to BMOC from 10/1 Sat. (First Day being Monday) to Saturday 11/6? Does this imply a 11/5 Graduation Date? If graduation is 10/28 what do they do for a week? Sorry if this is a stupid question as I have a feeling the answer is simple...
Donnie Gloves said
Sep 29, 2011
Huh. I thought it was usually graduate Friday, assigned to your new command on Monday
TiNmAn said
Sep 29, 2011
The last week they are assigned to field training at their commands I believe someone mentioned
HIGH600s said
Sep 29, 2011
If im not mistaken,,,this current class has been promoted and will be assigned to bmoc all of next week.
Donnie Gloves said
Sep 29, 2011
Ah, but they still put in the next class on Monday while the previous class is still assigned to BMOC but in field training for a week in their new command. Gotcha
DV Doldrum said
Sep 29, 2011
If that's the case we are on target for Brat's predictions. (Fingers Crossed)
Bx Bomber said
Sep 29, 2011
BMOC is 5 weeks total. 4 weeks Academy, 1 week field training. Promotion is ideally the Last Friday before your field training week, but it changes for a number of reasons as you see with this classes Wed promotion. You are technically assigned to BMOC for the whole 5 weeks including that last training week.
Congrats and good luck to all who made this cut.

I think she got promoted this week so she's probably been pretty busy with that
HIGH600s said
Sep 29, 2011
So how do you guys think this will pan out. If 40 extra test takers are added to the exam day, that is $4040 in revenue. Minimum wage is $7.25... That is 558 man hours for the proctors. 558 Man hours will pay 70 proctors....
If 2600 people are taking the exam... seating 15 people per classroom, that will make 174 classrooms needed to accommodate everyone....@ 2 proctors per class they will need 348 proctors...
LOL the revenue will provide for 70 proctors out of the 348 needed.
I DONT THINK THEY WILL PROMOTE UPFRONT.
IhaveNoHook said
Sep 29, 2011
What??? U just said 2 proctors per classroom and 15 per class. That would mean u only need 6 extra proctors for 40
HIGH600s said
Sep 29, 2011
I think i went in way over my head on that one. My point was that the extra revenue isnt a good reason to promote upfront. The Department doing the right thing sure as hell isn't.

Sep 30, 2011
With only 72 people being notified to go to BMOC on Monday my hopes are fading away
TiNmAn said
Sep 30, 2011
Well 4 of the slots were taken from people promoted yesterday. And there are others notified after the finest came down. So maybe 80 will be in class on monday.
Kev12345 said
Sep 30, 2011
and then november and december and this list will be finished??? sounds good
Quagmire said
Sep 30, 2011
Look on the bright side, they promoted 400+ names in 6 months! If they kept going with that every other month nonsense we would have had to wait till summer 2012... I cant complain.
IhatePG212207 said
Sep 30, 2011
Hope he is wrong...Just heard that there will be a class but not promoted up front. Also heard it will be a class of about 35. Any one hear anything similar please post.
HIGH600s said
Oct 1, 2011
That kind of sucks...Anyone hear anything similar?

Lt at bmoc just mentioned he expects 30-40 for upfront promotion
the ringer said
Oct 3, 2011
Yes , 30-40.. Grad On the 28th upfront.. They said actually short bout 150, so everyone will be made..So keep your head up, and out of the gutter, n fix what u need to fix, if it needs a fixin
HIGH600s said
Oct 3, 2011
Thank you! If you guys get anymore details please post. Let us know how they are plannning on doing it.
Donnie Gloves said
Oct 3, 2011
Thank you guys! Did they mention how far in advance they will let these 30-40 people know? They need to get their uniforms inspected, right?
And what about the remaining 80 or so, I'm assuming December?

If your in a ceremony to be promoted yes, you need uniform inspection.. To me its blown out of the water.. As long as it fits, has your service bars, 5yrs,10yrs etc, n no chevrons its all good. Just add your sgt hat and a gold name plate. Ours gets chkd on the 25th... So imgonna presume, if they have the next class in the same day for ceremOny, id say i guess maybe, notified a week in advance..again our ceremony has a tenative date as of the 28th...make sure its clean n fits everything else is as pg procedure, shiney shoes etc..Only add hat n name Plate

Is this confirmed?

Anything else from BMOC? this is a silent bunch.
IhaveNoHook said

Nothings confirmed until that finest msg. The lt did say there "should" be a class upfront
Donnie Gloves said
Oct 3, 2011
I'm assuming if they do the 30-40 upfront that that will be the size of that class, and they won't put in another 40-50 on Monday, right? Like give those 30-40 the chance to take the test and then fill out the rest of that BMOC class after the test. Probably not, right? Probably just that small group and another 80 in December. :(
HIGH600s said
Oct 3, 2011
LOL stick with the 30-40 your gonna jinx us..lol
machine said
Oct 3, 2011
High600s, stick with the 30-40 cause u're in for sure? you bastard lol... they should put in another 80, that's what they need to do. With 30-40 i might be single digits away from taking the test and I won't know if I'm elegible till the very end :(
Ms. President Brat, please show yourself again and raise that 30-40 to 80 upfront promotion...that would be the best gift ever!!!
