Former Navy SEAL turned doctor is now an astronaut

Navy Lt. Jonny Kim joined the Navy right out of high school and became an operator on SEAL Team 3. He served on that team from 2002-2009 when he was accepted into the NROTC program at San Diego State University. He graduated with a bachelor's degree in Mathematics and was commissioned into the Navy's Medical Corps. He received his doctorate in Medicine from Harvard in 2016 and entered the astronaut training program in June 2017. He graduated from that training program last week and is now in the rotation to fly to the Moon for the Artemis Program.
This guy has lived my childhood dream and I couldn't be more proud of him, even though I've never met him. It just goes to show you what you can accomplish with hard work and perseverance.

Millennials never know what they want to do in life. Pick a career already. You're 36 years old for crying out loud.

Can you imagine being this guy at a social function having to introduce yourself to complete strangers. If you have any humility at all, where do you start? "Well, I was a Navy Seal then went to Med. school now I'm with NASA as an astronaut."
"Nice to meet you I'm in middle management with Avis."

They laughed at Trump's "Space Force".
Now we're sending SEALs into space and the aliens are fricked.
