MEPS visit

Post by Valkur »

I got to hit MEPS recently, got my 11x/OPT 40 contract and ship out Oct 27th

When I got there they didn't have any more OPT 40 contracts, but he looked at my scores and called up someone and he plucked a contract off of next years allotment.

If you don't mind me asking. What were your scores?
