I so wish her well, come what may: Her willingness to serve, stand the watch is the second step.
The Third Step is up to her, figuring out how to lead regardless of her warfare specialty. It is all about war, folks.
Harsh but true.
My best to your young warrior.

You are so correct with your last statement. A hard one to swallow for a parent for sure.
Emma is 5' 9". Tall and lean. Flight size shouldn't be an issue if she chooses.
She went out on a Sub for a few days and had no like or dislike of it. Meh!
She loved the ride along in the T-34 trainer. Her Pilot was retiring two weeks after her flight and asked if she wanted to have some fun. "Hell yea!" Loops and Rolls! I know. They are not supposed to. He did! Perfect! She loved it! Yes, she puked! Non-deterrent for her.
Sorry it has been so long since the last update. I got a really bad taste in my mouth from all of the internet jockies that roasted me on the 3.2 motor build thread that I built to sell (and sold). They have no clue what it takes to build a quality motor!
I also have been buried with work since purchasing the shop that I have worked at for 20 years. I purchased the shop with my business partner that I have worked with since 1982. Yep, we have logged more hours together than any other human being. Ack! More then I have logged with my wife!!!
Really looking forward to surprising her for her birthday.
I thank each and every one of you for the kind words and encouragement in this thread.
I mean that!
More to come....
