Thanks for the info and I wish you the best of luck...Pax River is a nice test bed and I think it would be very interesting. I have a good friend that flys there. Did you submit a resume/cover letter to Cargo 360 or just apply online? Do you know if the HP price includes hotel? Also, do you pay the whole fee upfront or at the end of class w/VA and get reimbursed 60%?
