Yeah, it's been a long process getting accepted, but he has been. He was supposed to do the first of a six week this summer, but so many candidates have applied — they ran out of beds. Since he wasn't able to do the two six week sessions, he will now do one ten week. He's pumped.

I hope it's everything he prays it will be and then some. Those candidates that returned this summer and accepted their commissions said they'd never, ever want to go through it again, but they are so contented that they did.

I was stunned to see the level of educational background of those who went. Three were in law school at St. Louis U, two were in law school at Washoo, the rest were Bachelors’ and Masters’ degree holders. And to think John Kerry said if you don't get your education — all that's left is the Army. What a jerk!
