News from Vera and Jack

Vera and Jack in Maui



Kevin called to let us know he passed the Professional Engineer exam, great news on his way to be a PE.


Sean called just a little while ago and told us he passed Special Forces Select School.  He is exhausted after 20 some days of intense training.  About 2/3rds of the class of 300 dropped out, 50% of the officers in the class dropped out.  He said his other training (infantry, combat engineer-sapper and combat experience) were invaluable and gave him a leg up.  During the next two years, he will have more training, mostly in Fort Benning, GA -- Airborne school, then Captain school and then Ranger .  He is very excited to know that he will be stationed in Germany upon completion of his courses, which also include learning to speak Russian.
