Coast Guard age waiver help-

[mudkow60]

Sent you a PM. I will remember, what was said was said for me alone.

Thanks... he was helpful, and put me in touch with the O-3 and below DCA aviation detailor. He is looking to see what he can find.


My letter that I got back said that you can not be 33 by Sep 30. I was not 33 until Sep 30, so he is trying to work it from that angle.

Again, thanks for the help. I am submitting my DCA package for this May, so I will see if my argument floats.

Age waiver

Same thing happened to me in 2001. I maxed the points: 7 of 7, was one month too old, didn't get a waiver. That was then. I'm pulling for you, I hope you get it and fly CG.

Thanks. The problem is, they are not going to give any age waivers. The only way I think I may get in is if the detailor can use the angle that my b-day is the day of the age cut-off, and therefore I was not 33 by the 30th of Sep.

Thanks.

Mudkow60,

Glad you were able to get a hold of him. I hope it works out for you. Have you considered a bribe? I'm told a little bit of Zima goes a long way up at CG Headquaters.

Good Luck,
