Awww thanks sweetheart. You've always been a wonderful step-dad to her and I know how proud you are of her for following the tradition of armed forces service.

I'm still wondering though how the teenager we couldn't haul out of bed before noon without a fight is going to deal with 5 a.m. PT.

Thanks so much for your kind thoughts. Kate, though not a physically big girl, has always enjoyed challenging herself physically through sports so hopefully she'll find that stuff not too hard on her. I know she said the tests she has to complete so far were very easy and she passed them without any problems. She is considering the Military Police training and apparently has to pass some more special physical testing to go that route so we'll see how that goes.
