Second, agree with Brother Brabus-Johnson: you'll get your AR intro in the B-course (MQT often enough). You won't remember what the big deal was two weeks into your first deployment. Two months into said deployment, you'll stay on the boom while using a piddle-pack.
In the last month of the deployment, you'll see which booms catch that you're giving the ops desk dsn every time they ask for your tail number.
