I'm so lucky and so fortunate that I ended up where I ended up.
It's why I took it so seriously.
Like the focus with which I applied my time
In high school, I took that to 10X degree when I got to Newport because I knew this was my chance.
Yep.
So the way the prep school is set up for the Naval Academy is they're basically teaching you the first semester of the Naval Academy.
So you take calculus, physics, chemistry.
I think you take an English class, et cetera.
And you go through like a pretty hellacious first couple of weeks because you're away from the flagpole where no one can hear you scream.
You know, you're up in Newport.
You're not in Annapolis where everyone's watching.
And you do a couple of hellacious weeks for an 18-year-old who's never been in the military before.
You're actually enlisted in the Navy.
Okay.
Yeah.
Yeah, they do.
Yep.
Yep.
All of it.
Got it.
