O-5 selection stats



The O-5 results have been out for a bit, and the statistics are here:

Two odd things to note:

1. 104.35% selection rate for 1130s (SEALs). We're obviously so desperately short that everyone is making it. This is telling, since that community has been in a full-on war for the last 12 years now.

2. METOC selected a below zone officer. You don't normally see that for any community at the O-5 level, especially METOC since you need 3-4 degrees to be considered for O-5.
