Julieduke Posted December 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 "Ok, I think I'm gonna go have that talk with Luke if you don't mind." Lizzy says. Bo shakes his head and gives her one more reassuring squeeze before letting her go. Lizzy nods to Luke and then motions to the loft of the garage. They both climb up and sit down on the couch. "Luke, Captain Walters gave me an offer I think I'm gonna take." "So why do have to talk to me?" Luke asks. "I just need an mainly unbiased second opinion." Lizzy says."And I'm the one you thought would be mainly unbiased?" "Yeah, Bo loves me and I doubt he could take it much if I had to leave him to go somewhere else, Daisy would be too protective of Bo, Julie's got to much on her mind, Uncle Jesse wouldn't be much help, and Dad would want me to stick around here, but you've always shot straight with me and told it like it is. I was hoping you could do that now." "Alright tell me about this offer." "He says full time Mechanic with special ops training and I'll start as an E-3. He says I'll go to Basic and AIT at Fort Jackson in South Carolina and then he'd see what he could do about Fort McPherson. He also said he can get me a signing bonus of 2 grand and 600 a month during basic. I know as an E-3 it's higher than that but..." "Everything else will be taken care of right?" Luke asks. "Yeah. It's a great offer and I'd be stupid to turn it down. I want a family some day Luke and they've got great benefits, and great pay. I'm not sure is an offer I can turn down." Lizzy says running both hands through her hair. Luke sighed as he thought and gave Lizzy a small smile. "You need a little more information before you jump straight into this. How much Spec Ops training will you have to go through, does the 600 a month increase after basic and AIT, what kind of Spec Ops training do they want you to go through, things like that." Luke says. "I can't give you any insight if I don't know all this. Spec Ops is a long and grueling process to get through especially if it's a ranger type that they want you for. You need to think about it and get more information. Other than that yes it's a great offer and a lot to think about. Talk to Captain Walters and I can give you a better answer." Luke smiles. "Thanks, wow I never knew all that." Lizzy says. Cue anyone.Bo is still talking with Cooter when Sargeant Secret walks up and says "Cpl.
