Originally posted by Agent_DarkGoing by the ID card in Entity (which puts her year of birth as 1968), she'd be 38 years old. To get promoted to a Lieutenant Colonel (O-5), you need around 15-17 years of Time in Service. So if she joined the Airforce when she was around 20 (and I would say she would have), and got promoted to O-5 at the beginning of Season 8, it fits in nicely. 20+17= 37, which is how old she would have been in Season 8. There is a little bit of flexability with those numbers too. She could have joined the Air Force when she was 22, and been promoted after 15 years as well. But either way, it still works out that she's 38 years old

Originally posted by Agent_DarkYeah, that'd probably be right. 3 years at the academy, gets her commision, then does her PhD while in service?

Originally posted by parsifalI'm not sure the service academies allow early graduation. I was under the impression that everyone does four years. I would have assumed she'd have immediately progressed to her graduate work, but her time in the Gulf might contradict that.

Earlier today, when I looked at the links to the new stargate pics people posted, I wasn't sure what I thought of them, but I think I quite like them. My favourite is the one of them all striding along in their leather. It's very different, but interesting. The costume that Sam is wearing is actually quite nice, it's not too sexed up, but has a good look to it. I like the cape thing that she's got. And some combat boots of a slightly different kind . It must be fun for the actors at least, after how many years of wearing BDU's and combat boots, to wear something new. I've accepted that the show's different, now I'm just trying to figure out which differences I like and which I don't.
I have to say, Amanda is looking superb.

Yay, December 2nd! Love the calendar idea Lys!

Ooooh, when did all the fancy new avatars come in.
And am I the only one who gets the feeling that they posed all of the actors in front of a hastily scribbled chalk board *raises eyebrow*?
