WOW!! What is up with the BM1 advancement, are we starting to bottle neck or what? Sheesh! Does anyone know how the rate is looked at for advancement, I know it's based on vacancies but is there more to it? Thanks.

anyone know how many bm2's are still waiting from the may SW?

I think I counted 53(ish) last week...they're making 6 in Feb. 45(ish).

Also if I remember correctly they started advancing off of the May SWE list early. That may have something to do with the low numbers as of late.

Between the advancements as of late, and the Revised Cut of zero for the BM1's - I'm already looking ahead to the NOV cuts, and I'm only 9 away from the initial May cut.

Things have definately slowed to a screeching halt.

I can't find out any news good or bad, the last I heard the May SWE cuts were "conservative" Can't figure out if that's good or bad? Anybody else got a opinion on it?

I belive if my math is right it is 46 left from may 07 swe cut. I am still in the unadvanced group.....

Im assuming you missed the cut may cut by 9? Im 9 away from it now on the May list. I guess it will be like June or July at this pace.

- Goodluck

Im 11.....

That means you'll make it in like DEC 08'

Thanks for reminding me.

boats1980 - did you just get to the Sta?

I'm #38 from the NOV 07, I guess patience is a virtue.....whatever. The torture continues, not only with the movement or our rank/rate, but with all the craziness that goes with it!!!

Patience is defineteley a virtue. After the May SWE I was # 64, when they added all the award points I droped to 79. I am now currently # 5 on the BM1 advancement list. I'm a priority 5 and still awaiting orders. My assumption is that they are slating all Pri 5 and with the punch of a button all the orders will be disbursed. One could only assume. We're all very ancious, but soon enough we'll know. Good luck to all. Let's go GUAM..............

Congrats to all 6 who made it this month. Hopefully they will start making a few more than just 6 each month. Well see. Just a waiting game.

USCGBM0045, Hey how is Tahoe? I'm on the Aspen in San Fran and was looking at the XPO vacancies for 09. Noticed the Station was opening up.
