Don't confuse how many applicants can be charged to a MOC with how many nomination sources are out there. Each MOC can have 5 cadets at any one time, which is typically one per year and then every fifth year he would have two openings. Applicants can compete for multiple nominations, ROTC, Service Connected, etc and they can also be pulled of the NWL. In theory, all 10 could get an appointment but reality is usually somewhere in the middle.
