<p>What anyone who is considering this school and programs like SEALS has to understand is that any of this training is deadly serious and not a lark. With a daughter who is an officer in the Marine Corps, her training was outrageously hard. Of the 60 women she started with, only 15 finished Officers Candidate School. The trainers have no quota to meet in any of these programs - their job is to weed out the weak and those not truly committed to the ideals of the program. It’s the same with KP. You can go into any of this stuff with romantic notions. Look what is happening in Somalia - Capt. Phillips is fighting for his life and put his crew ahead of himself. Thank God for all the wonderful young people willing to make the necessary sacrifices.</p>
