Myself as a Former 18E, can say that I was never the Test taking kind of guy. I cant say that I was completely overloaded with info, but I never performed at tests as well as I would have liked. Now that being said, hand me a radio and I can make it go. I've known plenty of Echos who could answer all the questions correctly, but given the meat and potatoes (radio etc.) couldn't perform to what I would consider a standard.
No names mentioned, Dec 01, after telling certain individuals to get their comms shots with me (B tm at the time) prior to their movement to parts unknown, never did. Good thing for Iriudiums..........Downrange is never a good place to do your first troubleshooting. Sure you may need to, but you should at least have your settings good to go, prior to leaving the nest!
