The time has come that I will no longer be able to use the "SSgtUSMC" handle, because...........

I've been selected for promotion to the grade of Gunnery Sergeant!!!!! Even the name sounds cool! WooHoo!

Outstanding!!  Where are you stationed at?  If it's where I think it is, I just might know some of the folks over in the 67E shop.  Have you set up a date for the Advanced Course yet?  Just thought I'd ask before the Sergeant Major does[:D]!

Congratulations!![beer]

You're right about the advanced course. It took me 7 years to get a seat at the career course, by which time I'd given up asking. I had taken  3 weeks of leave, spent alot of money on my '72 Blazer, and came back to get broadsided by the Sgt Maj. He wanted to know why I thought I couldn't be there in 3 Days! I didn't have an answer. Or the money, really. Sold my M1A to finance that trip!
