<p>So you are saying that if kiddo in question was found "Potential Commission Qualified" from DodMERB that would be a reason he didn't get in? My son is in this category and while I'm not surprised that there would be a maximum quota for this sub-category, I am surprised that it would snare a primary nominee.</p>

<p>The two are seperate processes.</p>
<p>MOCs are not given the status of DoDMERB reports; it would be a breech of the HIPPA regulations. Secondly, DoDMERB decisions can, and have been, challenged and reversed, abeit, not easily, but it has been known to happen.</p>

<p>She needs to buy my silencio :eek: with some peanut butters, chockochips, snickerdudes, or oatmeal raisins (heavy on the raisins girlie:D)</p>
<p>However, I'll gladly sacrifice mine for their's, since they've sacrificed THEIR'S for mine. </p>
<p>Thank you, brave and beloved men and women! :)</p>
<p>Wow. Everything I've ever read and heard said the exact opposite. . .</p>
<p>but your answer, now that I think back on my research, does clear some things up. Thanks for keeping me straight.</p>
<p>Wow . . .</p>
<p>My son was nominated competitively both by his Senator and congressman. Goes without saying that we are proud of him. Only app was to USNA. Any thought on how USNA considers this? </p>
<p>Are you asking the posters that commented on this thread in 2005 - 2006?</p>
