    Could you have a glass for me? Thank you for all your encouraging posts. You have kept me going on this forum. Enjoy your weekend with your son. My son just came home from beach hoping to hear good news. I felt bad I had none to give him. Bummer.

    We just noticed the same status as Ibotsford, the only difference is he just received a letter from DODMERB yesterday stating he's qualified. Were we supposed to send something in to AROTC?
