[quote=@ThiefOnAGoose] To your first point, the Google docs say that Imperial citizens typically finish their military education "around eighteen". It does make more realistic sense if he's a party boy, so I guess I can have him take an extra year or two, but that might tarnish his disciplinary record (which the Empire takes far more seriously than the FAA IRL). Secondly, I'm scrapping that current interview. I can't think of any cutaway from that which doesn't involve godmodding or fully playing the character in a scenario prior to acceptance. Self-appointed deadline for edits: 12:01 AM, May 17th PST [/quote] I admit that is a confusing phrase. Perhaps we ought to put "basic" in front of "military education" to make more sense regarding age. The recruits/cadets which are looking or selected to specialise going into an additional 2-3 or 4-5 (depending on NCO or CO ranks) years of training, with servicemen, infantry, and other basic enlisted getting out at 18. Looking forward to the revamped interview!
