Please pray for me this week... All my life I wanted to become a military pilot ... New American heads off to war | SavannahNow.com
I was turned down in March and this week, it is my second review board for the selection to the Warrant Officer Flight Training, though in the face of competition I am not really hopeful I will be selected, I am kind of down because of it. They recently changed the rules. With the old rules, even if I wasn't selected this month, I was going to be able to try 6 more times before my 33rd b-day next year. But because of the economy they are reducing officer accessions and that means I get to try two more times next March and May, then I age out, I can't try anymore... I feel really tired and weary of it, I worked so hard, waited, struggled, went through all those obstacles, deployments, separations, now they are closing the door on my face. If so, I am getting out of the military in 2 years, I am going to finish college and try a career as an airline pilot. But this is a time that tests my faith to the extreme ... please pray for me ...
