Well not actually. If you are from Kentucky you might be married to your cousin, in that case its still a cousin, hence OK.

Exactly, Don. It's all about the points.

WAIT! Let me get this straight. If you get divorced in Kentucky, is she still your sister?

Freight dog thanks for the great post. One more question for you: When is it to early to post an application at UPS? I'll be separating from the military in the spring of 2009. I have a class I medical and am studying for my FE now. I meet all of the qualifications, except for the FE written which I will complete this month. Any suggestions or guidance would be appreciated?

Yes and no.

Stella,

I found out that it will only let you get past page one if you put your availability date as one year out from today's date. I'm basically in the same boat as you. I've completed everything, but really don't get out until next October (assuming they give me all my terminal leave)...

All,

Quick question about the flight supplement. I actually was able to put my time in on the website. Was there another spot where I was supposed to fill something out or were some not allowed to enter their time on the site when applying???

Thanks

GNH
