Kinda sounds like a big bang.

Yeah...that's mostly why I haven't tried delving into it yet. It won't be small.

Hello, class issues, some people needed to enroll in the military if they wanted to pay for their college...

My research into Naval helicopter pilots and how to become one requires being an officer. I have a note somewhere about him aiming for JAG. And I think Jim would have to be volunteering as a Medivac pilot because you aren't supposed to have another job while in the military, right? So he could be paid for it while in reserve but not if he's active in the prologue.

Actually I might not have to finagle my timeline that much...if this is the first meeting, this could be right after the divorce and Bones is berating himself to do it because of his officially failed marriage.
