Picked up after multiple times passed over with a 2-star DP. THE PROBLEM is my approved retirement and literally 7 workdays til final out before SkillBridge and terminal. WTF Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

I mis-typed in my frustration - "IPZ" should read "APZ".

Me as well. WTF is the point of the board being directed, "You shall not consider # of APZ looks or Year Group....and here's a DP, Airman - congrats" then a big "GFY' from the board. Seriously?! Also looking fwd to forgetting about this downward spiral of a career choice.

Nope. IDE complete, Masters done, interagency work, Jt assignments, strats. Problem is I’m a broke flyer not racking up the air medals and flt-related tick marks any more. I’ve never heard of TWO GO-lvl DPs with no pick-up for someone w/no checkered past. And I heard they had to do more of a non-select counseling or digging if the DP came from a General Officer and board didn’t heed his push. Is that true?

Got the call today - no go as a X APZ bubba. Not shocked (last year also not picked up even with clean record and a 2-Star DP...!). I was never shown this year's PRF - honestly didn't care at the time because it's not like there'd be a chance in hell after the non-select with that DP. BUT.... just looked at it off PRDA and guess what....ANOTHER DP from a CCMD J3. W. T. F. is going on here

Is that from the RAW data page? Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

My J1 RUMINT source said today that the delay is due to GOs going round-round about the lineup of the pin-on order since the BTZ is gone and they went to this new “merit-based” package score ranking. All about the bright/shinies and who goes first. And he added the expectation of mid-October. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

AFPC’a 3 September 2020 board status update.....NO UPDATE. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

Ha haaa he said “feedback”. I think that’s the thing on your OPR where you just pick a random date and put it in the blank while you’re writing it for yourself.... Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

My J1 told me today release now delayed until end of Aug. something about the Congress part. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

I’m looking forward to being one of the ~ 9-10% of those APZ bubbas that roll in with a DP (2-star SR) and still manage to get passed over. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

...So anyone hearing rumors about promo statistics from this year’s P0520 board? Ended 19 May and that magic list is making the GO rounds now Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

The white board in the J1 office here says “~Aug 20”. I’m guessing mid-month Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

Yeah I don't know how that direction will be implemented - I heard about it then read the directive. It doesn't go into more details so maybe the board will address with masking some stuff - but I doubt it.

Keep in mind the SecAF sent a directive to the board this year that they are NOT to consider how many times someone is passed over. It's I/APZ, and that memo effectively makes all the APZs 1-above. Or 2-above...however the board member applies their subjectivity. Same DP allocation %, and it wouldn't be hard if that member wanted to look at DOR, "but not take that into account". Yeah. Hmmmm...
