Congrats, but why didn't you do your paper about fish behavior ?

It would have been tough, the last subject was project management.  I like where you're going with this though, I could spend more time on the water conducting practical research and see what I can do when I start my working on a Masters degree.

As a fisherman, that's a study I could get behind. :stirpot:

No, I'm not completely done, I do plan on working on my Masters, I will probably take off a year before doing so.

I work for a company that does a lot of contract work for DoD, and I'm currently an analyst for my former career field, however I would like to have opportunities to do other things.

I had one career field my entire 29 years in uniform and still work in the field today.

The way I was understanding it was that when someone says just "retired" it means time to pull social security and move to Florida. When I hear "retired from the (branch)", I think, so you what are you gonna do now?

No problem, I've got a few more years before that happens.

Mrs. Ogre is quite adamant about me not becoming a "lay-about do nothing" that golfs, hunts, or fishes all day long.

The difference is I occasionally get to do them, as opposed to occasionally not doing them. :-)
