Sounds like you are starting to get your legs under you. Don't get caught up administrivia; continue to do the best you can at whatever you happen to be doing. I hope you find what you're looking for.

Good things come to those who work hard. Sometimes just not on the timeline you want! I'm confident with your determination that something good is gonna shake loose and fall your way.

Damn but your timeline sucks - you are the poster child for "Never Quit"!

You kept preparing and it could be that opportunity is finally arriving - I hope you kept up your PT. That cold water around Coronado is unforgiving.

Once again you are demonstrating that the Army's loss is the Navy's gain.

This means barring any injury or anything that this issue is fully cleared for good now. I am still training, and still driving on. All that's left to do is continue pushing for a slot at school *BUD/S SWCC EOD*. Thank you to everyone who has been so helpful here.
No,, thank you for never, never giving up. I, for one, consider you my hero!
