Can someone review this AFS waiver request and give me some tips?

First and foremost I would like to thank you for taking the time to review my packet and waiver request. I have given great thought and effort into presenting the best packet possible. The reason for this waiver request is that I will be just past 12 years of Active Federal Service (AFS) as the board convenes. I am not one to make excuses so I will only provide a few reasons as to why I am at this point, requesting a AFS waiver to become a Warrant Officer Aviator. As a young Infantry Soldier coming into Active Duty, I deployed twice, back to back. Being in the Infantry and deploying was what I love and enjoyed. The goals I had for my career involved completing every school possible that the Army offers in order to make myself and asset to my men and unit, not a liability. In the pursuit of these goals, the years passed quickly and here I am approaching my 12th year in the Army.

Throughout my career I have always been a standard bearer and steward of the profession. Exceeding the standard has always been foremost in my mind. I will without a doubt bring these qualities over to the Warrant officer Corp if given the opportunity. My body feels young and my brain is agile enough to continue my service as a Warrant officer and Aviator for many years to come. Regardless if I am awarded the opportunity to join the Warrant Officer corp or denied, I will still continue my service well past 20 years. What I will bring to the Corp is someone who never settles for mediocrity. Being an expert and professional is everything that I am and I will continue to always strive to improve myself and others around me.

My years are without a doubt still young in my service to this Army and Country.
In closing, I ask for your strongest consideration and approval of this waiver.
