Absolutely. And by taking this action, they are clearly taking responsibility for the situation and taking the unpopular steps that they believe to be appropriate to address the situation.
Yes, there’s a bunch of us in that boat. USNA changed their routine of sending names to DODMERB upon completion of 50% of the application in the January timeframe. Due to changes in the system this year, they are only now only sending names to DODMERB when they have an appointment lined up for...
