Application on hold, pending review on 12DEC14, as per applicant's request.

[MAJ (Ret) Hayes]

Mr. O'Dette,

I'm going to take the time to provide you a personal response to your application. This is your second application to the 506th. The first was denied because you expressly stated you could not be active. You come to us with a history of significant inactivity in the 15th but a persistent presence on the forums. In the 506th we have zero interest in carrying people in our unit who only want to be active in our forums but do not have any intention of holding an active billet. We have discussed your application, if you are given a chance here, you will need to show activity in an active billet. 2000 posts from someone cruising reserves will not be satisfactory. Please keep this in mind, and I hope you have a long successful and positive career here in the 506th.

Understood, Captain.

As I've stated to SFC De Leo, college restricts the amount of weeks I can participate in until I get a better computer to take with me.

I rescind my application because of this, and will not reapply until I have the ability to participate every week I can.

[MAJ (Ret) Hayes]

Thank you for your candor Mr. O'Dette. We have many college students that serve with us. When your schedule and technology permit you to participate actively we encourage you to re-apply.
