How do enlisted SM's APPROPRIATELY go about asking for LOR's from officers for flight programs if there's little interaction in MOS field?

I am currently applying for an officer/pilot program. Package is 95% completed. I have LOR's from current unit CO, one from an aviator CO (diff unit), and one from the unit that would be gaining me should I be accepted.
I had convenience and luck for the first couple, but how would others go about developing that mentor/men-tee relationship that would also be interested in supporting your career?

LTJG (Join to see) - I wouldn't let the MOS thing get in the way. If you have endorsements from your command, you've already got a head start. As you already know, the Corps is small enough that you can make some great connections via your current position. Although I was Motor T/Logistics, I personally knew, at least, 12 aerodales... still keep in touch with 'em. Those on active duty are even better connected. Reach back to those who drafted those letters of recommendation and tell them you intent. I see you're already in the Wing... so, it shouldn't be too much of a stretch. Good Luck, Devildog!
