<p>HI all! Bullet and I are back in the living (somewhat…cable and internet aren’t set up…I am at work) AND yes the move went fine…they only broke the grandfather clock we bought in England :(</p>
<p>Back to the topic.</p>
<p>When DS’s ALO met with him, the ALO really wanted to know if DS was doing this for him or for us.</p>
<p>AS a military family you are well aware of how often we move, are you sure this is the right fit. I do not mean to be insensitive, but as an AF officer, he will do a lot of moves within the 1st few yrs, esp. if he applies for UPT. (The first few yrs will be moving every yr, which will require new surroundings.)</p>
<p>Most importantly, he needs to desire to be there with every fiber of his being. Back in Mar. b4 the board met we sat down with our son and asked why he wanted to go to the AFA. Simple answer was to fly…we told him that wasn’t a good enough reason. He needs to want to experience the whole life, and not for what he may or may not get in 4 yrs.</p>
<p>Best of luck!</p>
