John C. Good luck with your DBS. And by the way, I'll bet you look "cute" with your recruit's hair cut. When my son had his shaved (the military punished him for cursing to much ), it grew back very curley, in fact almost kinky, and he let it grow long and into a pony tail (after he got out of the service, that is). When he was killed, the funeral home had it pulled back, and I asked them to fluff it around his face and onto his shoulders. Just wish my hair was that pretty. Think I should shave mine? Again, best wishes, and know we are all thinking about you. Jo Ann from Houston
