    Hi John,  Hope you're still out there!  I've read conflicting material regarding SQT.  Some say it's four months in duration and some say six.  Can you help me out?  My son has just started 3rd phase with 292.  Given a month of jump school, when do you think it's realistic to expect him to graduate barring a roll back?  Hope all is well with you. Thanks, RyeJim

    John:  Coincidentally, I gave my son my Submariner of 40 years.  It helped me run my charter boat, got me to the church on time, and helped me note the delivery times of my three sons.  (I'm sure yours could tell more exciting tales).

    I told my son (292) it was perhaps the toughest watch ever made and made for men like him (and you).  I just kept mine company for a few years!

    Best wishes, Jim

    John, My ex-bro-in-law also graduated BUD/S class 57 and he was in SEAL Team one in Viet Nam. He was married to the youngest sister and I was married to the oldest. His initials were T.P.P. He left us in 2002 I think about him every day. Out
