I have been reading a lot of books, but did not cross the one you mention. I will pick up a copy of the above mentioned book and do some reading, it is all I do lately and I enjoy it!

Oh one quick note, had they allowed me an Option 40 six years ago I would have taken it. They would not guarantee me at the time that option as it was not available.

I am working as hard and quick as possible to get my chance at my dream.

I will not live the rest of my life with the fact of "I should have or I could have done this". It is time for me to do what I need to do.

This site is a great tool and hope to take full use of it over the next few months to help me gather what I need to give my self the best shot at making it through SFAS and on.


For me, I enjoy driving and wanted some further information on it. It would be great to be an ODA driver and I will take it if and when I get the chance.


Thank you again to all that have posted replies.
