I get a huge kick out of being around a group as diverse as we are. I expected every one of us who was a firefighter, cop, soldier, sailor , airman, or Marine to pass. I am most impressed by our classmates who conquered the RKC who come from everyday walks of life.It was refreshing for me to be around such a diverse group of people who were united under such austere conditions. Mom's, Dad's, farmers, personal trainers etc...all swinging and snatching and heaving and hurting.The people who were challenegd in such a way for their FIRST time.
