It’s not going to be a hard test, but I am nonetheless nervous, as anyone would be when it involves something that could enhance or retard your career advancement. I also have to keep in mind that everybody that wears NCO rank in the Air Force has passed this thing, and some of them are, truthfully speaking, dumber than a bag of hammers. So I’m pretty confident. Anyway, wish me luck. ---

Hey, good luck man. 'Cause, y’know, “Staff Sgt. Doors” would sound like a character out of Dr. Strangelove. ---

If this will adversely effect you starting your **Third Annual Steelers March To The Super Bowl Thread** , then I wish you no luck at all. Ahh, what am I thinking? Their training camp begins in 11 days. I’m sure the thread will be started within 12. 🙂 Good luck to ya! ---

SrA Doors - You have studied hard, and your purpose is clear. Passing this test will not be an obstacle, but rather a milestone. As you’ve noted, you are well-qualified to wear a rocker with your stripes! You’re a cut above, so go out and take what you’ve earned. All my best **Jurph** Capt, USAF ---

Good luck and do us proud! Don’t know if it’ll help, but my father always said the most important thing to remember on the test is that a rifle is for shooting and a gun is for fun. ---
