I had a classmate of mine in AOCS who stayed in the Navy for his twenty years. He was hired at NWA and offered a class date which he turned down for a later date. He wanted to take a little time off before starting class. We were in contract negotiations at the the time. Before he started class we signed a new contract. He was in the first B Scale class. A very expensive decision. I am not saying that will happen again but in this career, seniority is everything .
