Pete,

Thank you for your response. I have read the % of those who pass Selection and the Q course, and all I can do is prepare to the best of my abilities and have faith when it all goes to shit, which I have read happens at some point to everyone. Beyond preparing physically, mentally, and emotionally...and "cast or tab" as my level of commitment, I have done all I can and its up to the man upstairs. If I give my all, no surrender, and still do not make it, then I will adapt and overcome at that juncture.

This was my full statement...

"I don't see being a 29 yr old E-2, E-3 in the conventional army as an ideal scenario for me personally. No matter what happens, I will make the most of it, and if I end up 11B Airborne so be it. I will be the best goddamn 11B, get to Ranger school somehow, and hopefully get back to Selection someday."
