The Sarge played it cool, looked over my DD-214 and told me that I did meet their requirements, then told me that I could get a physical waiver AND my E-7 back...with a straight face.
After we had a good laugh, and a couple of cups of real coffee, he processed the paperwork to delete me from the contact list, and we had another good laugh that it would probably not go into effect until 2035 and not until the Navy had tried hard to get me to apply for Annapolis!
All enjoyed a good laugh about the idiots at Headquarters and shared a few "sea stories".
