Question about the OTS Candidate Check-In Checklist that is attached to the Interview Confirmation email. There is a 'First Set' and 'Second Set' of materials to deliver upon arrival. The first set includes 'Training Records' and is not marked specifically for Military. Are the 'Training Records' just for civilian flyers or does this one apply to AF members? What exactly are the Training Records?
Thanks

I hear it's a bit different with holdbacks, in which case I think the drop is emailed out prior to indoc and you send your prefs in via email.
Have each newb go up on stage, show his first 3 choices on the screen behind him...
Then show what he actually got!

Would you recommend we move in between indoctrination and training? Or do we try to move after opeval and regular scheduling? Can you even do that? Or as a new hire, are you at the mercy of being the junior guy on a schedule?
