Next spring, March 26, 2011 I am to be married up in St. Louis. I turn 28 this coming August, so I'll need to be through OCS before then, my recruiter had planned for me to be in within the next month or two. He also tells me there is little chance I would be able to get leave that weekend to get up there for the wedding, which would be a total disaster. Looked into having it down in Pensacola, but the Ms. has too much invested at this point.
So I'm at a crossroads, do I opt for SWO to guarantee I make the wedding and skip my dreams of being able to fly? Or is there any chance that the Navy would be willing to bend to let me home for this, 15 months from now?
Please advise. Wish I had found this board sooner, the recruiter needs my answer by the morning. Thanks!
Mike
