Not entirely true. You have a large posting habit compared to most here and that gives us a pretty good idea itself. We can then delve into the wisdom and relevance of those posts and glean some further insight into who really, this joboy 2.0 really is. Based on that, I think it is safe to say we have rough portrayal of your maturity and responsibility; at the very least a great deal more than board that selected you. You have said some less than wise things and were we in person, one could assume, for your sake, that you just spoke without thinking or just felt like you had to say something. As it is, you have the chance to think, re-think and then see how your thoughts play out on the screen before your post-foolishness is less forgivable given this consideration.
No, you have not proven yourself worthy of the chance to become a Naval Aviator, you have been given the chance to become worthy to become an Officer. The whole decrying the Navy sentence makes no sense to me since we all know that Navy recruiting is not perfect except for Wink and those of us who have been in the longest are more intimately aware of the flaws of our beloved service and have earned the right to talk about them, especially in the spirit of making them better. (My apologies to fellow English Majors for that run-on sentence).
Okay, this is the main problem. You just thought you'd throw out your opinions. And for what reason? I think we have covered this before when Joboy666 was around. Just talking to talk is a big problem for you and will become a huge problem later on for you.
I know you feel beat down a little, but most of us are here to help (picture me with an orange t-shirt-VP inside joke) and let you know what training and a squadron will be like. You still have time to work on this if you choose to heed some very well intentioned advice. I suppose I could've pm'd you this stuff but I am hoping that some others, not only you, will get something out of it. For those that have ears, becoming a Naval Flight Officer or Aviator if you can't get FO
is about much more than just getting a spot and then passing the schools and we are trying to get that across.
Having said all that, get a used medium framed .357 revolver and practice with economical .38 special rounds as much as you can. Get good at pistol shooting and then step to a higher dollar auto-loader when you really know what you are looking for.
