Hello,
I have applied to the Army and Navy branches of the military for the HPSP. To my excitement, I was called by both my Army and Navy recruiters (late February) to say that I was selected for both 4-year programs. The issue that I'm experiencing now is that the Army paperwork has gone through much faster than the Navy, and they want tonc mmission me ASAP. My preference is to take the Navy, but I would be screwed if I didn't commission with the Army and then lost the Navy (somehow - even though I have verbal confirmation from my recruiter that we are solely waiting on the final select letter). There is no formal documentation that I have been given on my selection for either, however, if the Army wants me to come and swear in, I assume they have everything that they need.
Should I follow: A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush - or would you suggest I take commission with the Army and never look back?
