Fuck. The doc told me it should take her 2 weeks max to submit so we will see.
Awesome. What's your timeline look like now?

What region are you? And did they email you?
SW region, my medical POC is SS. I sent her an email yesterday asking if they needed anything else from me after requesting I fill out and submit a headache questionnaire last week. She emailed back this morning that I had been cleared 6/19 and would hear from HR regarding next steps. Went ahead and emailed my HR POC, LM.
What does it mean if I never received a medical POC? I asked my HR POC, she said I was not assigned one.
I didn't have one listed in my CIL either if that's what you're talking about. After I emailed the generic medical email, SS started replying to me consistently so I just started reaching out to her directly instead, Kind of assuming she was my POC.

Lmao you think that’s long? There’s people from 3 years ago still waiting for an appointment.
Born and raised on Guam, then volunteered to come back. A flight out of here to LA would be like $1200. To Japan about $500. To the Philippines like $300. Everyone that has come out and worked here never complained about anything besides the gas prices and maybe groceries. I've never been to the Caribbean but I've been to many other countries, trust me when I say that Guam is definitely beautiful.

Guam was definitely one of my favorite ports to visit when I was in the Navy.
Just yesterday I actually looked at some pictures of Guam and it looked very nice. Underwater pictures were amazing. Someone I know went there to visit a relative in the military and said negative things about Guam. Thank you for speaking up. Now my only negative would be the distance and travel costs to the continental US.

I think Guam would work great for a single guy/gal who is looking for an adventure for their first assignment. I personally couldn't do it, mostly due to having a wife and young child, whom I at least want to keep within the states so that my parents can come visit and not spend an arm and leg in doing so. I'd definitely jump on the opportunity if I didn't have a family.
It would be legit if it were like a finite amount of time, like a tour of duty. Certify fast and live the island life for a few would be great. I would be scared to get stuck there with no means of leaving If i could err, which from what I've read here seems difficult if you go there after the academy
I've heard they airdrop mice laced with Tylenol to kill all the snakes.

So i just asked my medical POC for an update after no response for 14 days, and was sent back a message saying "please set up appointment for refresh drug test", with a number to call to set up an appointment....I did this back in February, anyone have a clue as to what's going on? Seems a bit too soon to so a refresh.

Do they have a callback number so you can get more clarification?

I called the medical POC a few minutes after getting the email, but I believe she had already left home because it was already 5 p.m. when I got it
I read this and got way too excited before I remembered you aren't tier 2 ???. Just pee in that cup and dont look back. The academy is near
