I finished my Master's program this past fall. Whew...
It was the very BEST thing I've ever done in my life and I wouldn't trade it for the world!

Great job Woodyboat! I spent 33 years, 3 months and 9 days in the military. I was fortunate that my masters was paid for by the military (US Army War College). As for the undergrad, I drug my feet and didn't get it done until I was 39....it was either that or they'd take away my commission...
