haha, you and Tiger Ten.

Yeah, my AOC told all the freshmen in my squad the roster should come out soon...then again they've been saying that for a while.

According to someone doing the shuffling, "there were unforseen errors." I just want to know why it took so long for them to catch the errors. I didn't care quite as much before Finals, but now that those are almost over (well, for me), I really want to know where I'm going. I guess patience is the key now...

Actually, my freshman are getting their new squads as we speak. So you will all be getting it today most likely.

I got 33...I haven't heard much about them, except that they train their 3-digs (ruck-runs and such)...I guess I'll just have to take your advice G4C.

Good question, ds52262. He isn't sure why, but he thinks it had to do with keeping the demographics of the squadrons equal. I told him not to worry, it wouldn't be the last time the Air Force sends him somewhere other than where he was expecting.

Was he trying to legacy into 8? Because I'm pretty sure they can't deny you a legitimate legacy request.

No, several people were denied it this year. It might screw up the demographics, but I think they should give the legacy guys and gals the squads they requested.

It means they have had a relative like a sibling or parent who graduated from a particular squadron. So, they try to move to that squadron as an upperclassman.
