<p>My district Rep. uses the method where 1 is the principle nominee and 9 are alternates. If the principle nominee accepts his appointment offer, what happens to the 9 alternates if that is their only nomination source? I have heard that they enter into a national pool of alternates, but I don’t fully understand this because that Rep. can only have 5 attendees at the Academy at 1 time.</p>
<p>Any help would be much appreciated</p>
