Thanks! No, she enlisted in the Army. She goes off to boot camp at the end of August.

She's been in the Jr ROTC all four years in school, and she really loved doing the personnel/logistics for two years. She wasn't sure what she wanted to go to school for, and concluded that instead of spending a bunch of money and she really wasn't sure what direction she would go in, the army offered her the exact position she wanted. She'll go for a little less than 4 years, get schooling while she's in there, have benefits for life, and when she's done, go to school on the GI Bill.
I'm good with it. She has a plan, so I'm proud of her in multiple ways. :)
