For those who know me..You know that I am in the military. This June I was looking at having to retire from something that I have truly enjoyed doing for 24 years. The Navy has something that they call(HYT) High Year Tenure. Twenty four years is the maximum amount of time that a Chief Petty Officer can stay around in the Reserves.
Well today I received the BEST Valentines Day present that one could ever get. And it was not flowers or candy.The Administration Department of my Reserve Det sent me an email. It was the Navy saying that I can stay in until February 2011.
You could have knocked me over with a feather. A very small feather at that!
Next project is to buy a house and finish up my Seabee Combat Warfare pin..... And also put a star on the top of my anchor (Senior Chief)!!!
Did I say that I LOVE what I do in the Navy ?!?!
