Finally, after so much time, I am at last going to do what I've wanted to do as a small child: serve my country in military aviation. This came from my Grandfather, who was a Naval Aviator and served as a bombardier/navigator on Grumman Guardians in the early 1950s. I swore in with the Navy Reserve on May 3rd, and got an October 4th ship date to Great Lakes, then on to Enlisted Flight Crew training at NAS Pensacola! God opened the door, and I stepped on through!
