No worries. So the gap between the pre-trainee breach and the training itself is two years in this setting, so basically just temporarily take 2 years off the character's age for the intro and then add them back on when training begins. The training arc won't be [b]too[/b] long, mostly the drill instructor intro, a little social gatherings to form some early bonds, and then one big training exercise a month or so ahead, before we get into the actual meat of the story

Ok! Gotcha. I'm caught up to speed now. Actually, I'll keep it where it is and then add two here later. The idea was for the character to be a little older since he never had any intention of becoming career military. Thanks.
