Man dont sweat it,so long as we see that the activity and interest is there from your part then the recruitment period can be extended but only on these conditions.
We as a clan will always stress that real life shit,family stuff ie u moving home,emergencies etc etc will always come front and centre.
Also I want to mention too that u are free to work on your sharpshooter award etc after you have obtained the required marksman kills.you may record these kills but understand if you complete sharpshooter before your recruitment period ends the award will not be recommended until you receive your marksman award,Dogg ribbon and rifleman billet clarifying your full member status.
Its nice to see someone actively hitting the forums!
