That's what fuss is about, but I think it's time to stop fussing
Direct from the application:

"Applicants should select "UNITED STATES" & "THROUGHOUT THE NATION" for location preference. Duty locations/facilities assignments will be determined at a later date."


No where does it say to JUST select throughout the nation. It says to put it down. And wow, there's 9 other slots to put other places down. People need to quit saying that putting down other selections is considered "not following directions."

Also, it says that the ASSIGNMENTS, not the PREFERENCES will be determined at a later date. When the Feb announcement first came out, I'm pretty sure they didn't quite have the whole e-mail link to the 2 slot geo pref website figured out yet. Since then, they have just recopied the instructions on to the other announcements. Those who put more than just "Throughout the Nation" are probably better off than those who put nothing more. At least they have a little more info in their application.
