I really enjoyed this story and am very happy you have plunged head-long into the H50 fandom. You definitely have a feel for everyone's voices. I also really appreciate all the research you do. A close family friend went through the Naval Academy - some of the stories she can tell - she actually had a classmate who was a former SEAL - he'd gone back for education and officer training. My favorite comment of hers - "The Navy is 150 years of tradition, unhampered by progress." You definitely did a great job with all the 'rules and regulations' details.
