<p>Not exactly sure what you’re asking. This is all about nominations, not appointments. Appointments are given by the President. Nominations come from the sources listed. Only the President can both nominate and appoint.</p>
<p>The Sec Nav nominates reserve sailors and Marines and up to 85 regular sailors/Marines and 85 reserve sailors/Marines can be appointed by the President. Most of those folks are at NAPS, and some of them come directly from the Fleet. The other 150 noms are alternates of MOC’s, if what I read is correct. Some of those kids will be Napsters, some will be kids from competitive districts. Even Napsters apply to their MOC’s, if they’re on the ball.</p>
