I have 10 years prior active duty service and a couple years USAR service. I returned and found myself the brigade chaplain of a Regional Support Group from a couple days after my commissioning. I take my PT next test in about seven and a half hours--and plan to pass by God's grace. Last year was the first time I ever had to be "taped" due to weight. Since then, I have been taped three times, including last month during the Chaplain Captain Career Course. Bless you.
