Finished in Monterey

[John]

I find it hard to respond to this without coming off as a dick (sorry about that) but the majority of people out here are first term Airmen and they are not given a choice so I don't know who you know or what you've heard but the needs of the military always outweigh the needs of the individual.

Now I was given a little list in which I could rank my top choices in case their needs did happen to coincide with my dreams but it didn't have a few of the languages taught here on it including Urdu. I think I put Farsi, Russian and Arabic down as my top three.

I simply asked why you chose Urdu - I didn't realize at the time that you didn't get to choose it.

All the individuals that I knew that went through it (about 8 in all) were all Intel with the exception of two - in various services - but went through it prior to 2004.

Anyways, good luck in the rest of your training. Any idea where you're going to be stationed?
