I just ask for the opportunity to learn and understand.
One man's beratment is another man's teachable moment.

If you are able, I would recommend going Airborne (USAF version) as an 1A8X1. After your training at Fairchild AFB, you'll most likely start to understand what I mean about internal and external motivation. (External being that you would do anything to not let your team/crew down).

Best of luck and study hard. Regardless of your language, we need more volunteers to become 1N3X1s.
