[ACW78]

Hello everyone!

        I'm surprised at how quickly the process went! Time just flew by! Alot of my friends told me to set goals and strive to achieve them, aswell as always thinking positively. And I think that helped the time go by. Hope my experience can help someone in some way.

Congratulations on the offers.

It would appear by those medical processing times that DEO applicants are priority, at the moment, for the May BMOQ. Hence the delay for the rest of us, which is fine with me. Progress is progress.

[N.E.D.]

Hey everyone, first post. I just completed my medical and interview earlier today. I still need some documents for my medical, but the captain who interviewed me said that my educational background, experience and CFAT results make me quite competitive for EO Tech. On a side note, I didn't expect the staff to be so friendly, a pleasant surprise!
