Thanks for the advice, but I want to be able to see my daughter as much as possible and she's in the USA, so I don't think that will be plausible. However, I do plan on learning French, although Arabic and Russian are on the top of my priority list for languages I want to learn. Also, I'm set on Special Forces. I obviously can't know exactly what they do, but I know they're doing it for our country while staying in top shape to leave when the time comes. I would be really honored to stand next to them.
Thanks to everyone for their thoughtful advice. I've decided the only way I'll find out if I can do it, is by doing it. So, I'll do exactly that. Have a cheerful day everyone.
