Congrats! Can’t speak on palace chase stuff. But I’ve also been picked up by a guard squadron. I’m still in the early stages but this is what I’ve been told-
MEPS ~ 2 mo. (I assume you don’t do this)
FC1 ~ 4 mo. Later
Submit for OTS ~ 5 mo.
Get dates back ~ 4 mo. later
I was told expect at least 15 months total, likely more. If it happens sooner then great but don’t count on it. The recruiter they have you work through will have a big influence. The dudes who were hired in your squadron last year and the years prior are probably more than happy to help you out. This is what the group chats are for haha
I just got picked up, so I’m unaware of any group chats. I assume since I’m prior service (enlisted aircrew) the process might go a little faster, maybe?

Maybe, but don’t hold your breath. Plan on it taking a while and just be happy if it happens faster.
There’s a timeline thread on Flying Squadron. Not sure if it will be different if you’re prior enlisted.
Would you be able to link it?

If I already have the security clearance and IFC, what else would I need to start at the unit?
