Once again they aren’t posting the non-select list however I did get some basic information from Signal on the selections.  For 255A there was an 88% selection rate and 81% for 255N.  Unfortunately, those numbers are way to high.  It means that we are selecting pretty much everyone that puts their packets in.  While I would love to think that every single person that drops their packet is the best of the best, we all know that’s not necessarily true.  Bottom line is Signal needs to fill a lot of slots, and because of the relative lack of packets, they are grabbing just about anyone they can.  I unfortunately don’t have information for Cyber.

Also today I found out that there is going to be an off cycle 170A board 23-27 July.  The submission deadline has already passed so if you have a 170A packet already in the system working, you will hopefully get looked at in July.  If you are still working your packet then the next regular 170A board is in Nov.  For signal, the next board is is 24 Sept.  Either way, talk to your people and get them to submit their packets.
