Default Son #2 just made it through selection
Am a bit proud, he just passed the selection course, now the harder and longer phase starts, pray for him.

Watched a documentary on Discovery Channel Surviving the Cut about the Pararescue training. Crew followed these guys through their training and it is amazing what they do. I am sure his training will be just as tough.
Prayers to a healthy and successful completion.

Similar training, they start together, one is an angel and the other is an angel of death. Thanks for the prayers and thoughts crew. Its still another year and a half of training and it gets harder, hehehe, for the record, I warned him, but he is hard headed like his mom.

Congrats to you and your son! It's not too often these days you find kids that are willing to work that hard.

After the year and a half of intensive training will he still only be #2? Hahaha
