Er Yard. Stupid autocorrect

Thank you so much!

Of course! Where in NM?

When I went to CVW, the midshipman I shadowed had never met anyone from New Mexico before.

In the east mountains outside of Albuquerque.

There’s about 12 total I think?

Wow, that’s even less than I thought.

Ah nice. We’re in ABQ. Soon to be Youngster kid went the Cueva

Oh, nice. I am definitely more rural than that but I have many friends who go/went to la Cueva. Congratulations to your son on almost being a Youngster!

Thanks! Yeah he's pretty excited plebe year is almost over. And East Side, not all the rural compared to some parts of NM!

Should you decide to accept, shoot me a dm and I’ll give you my kid’s contact info as well as mine for your parents. Don’t want to share that publicly

Thank you so much for that offer, I will absolutely take you up on that. I know my parents would appreciate it a lot too. Would you be willing to pass on your son’s contact information before I accept, by any chance? I completely understand if you aren’t comfortable doing so, but I would love to have someone who’s already been there to talk to before making such a life-changing decision.

Also, I don’t think I have enough posts to dm yet…

Absolutely will pass
It along. I think you need to make five posts.

That would be amazing. I think I figured it out, I have already met the 5 posts but I have not had my account for long enough. So I have to wait a week, or you might be able to dm me to bypass the requirement. I’m sorry, I have been lurking on the forums for years now but never pulled the plug on creating an account until I got my appointment.
