Awesome! What was the time frame from passing your board to this moment? I just received my endorsement and my recruiter pushed up my packet for review for the June board.

2LT (Join to see) Sorry for the delay in response. First off, Congratulations! So, I received approval from the FEDREC Board (D.C.) and then commissioned at the National Guard level the following month. Basically, once you are approved you should commission pretty quick, this was my experience at least. Are you going in as a candidate or straight to Chaplain?

Thank you for taking the time and getting back to me sir. It's definitely been a long process but worth it so far. I am suppose to hear back with results on whether I passed the board or not today. My recruiter said my chances are really high and that I shouldn't worry but the anticipation is killing me lol I will be going in as a candidate. Were you prior service before this? Thank you.

Quick update...So I did receive great news that I passed the accessions board June 28th! A couple of days later, I received a congratulatory letter from the Office of the Chief of Chaplains. I was told that I am suppose to wait for my "scroll" which could take God only knows how long. I recently just had my interview with my background investigator for my secret clearance. I know everyone is different, but how long does it typically take to receive your clearance?
