I had to pass a 35 wpm code test in the Marine Corps radio school, we had 3 weeks of instruction and took the test infront of a Gunnery Sgt. who I think had been in the Corps since Teddy Roosevelt was President. I was a teenager at that time too. The only instruction we had before the test was, "You girls will pass the test"

Of all the very nice emails I've received from others on RCSE, the only one who mentioned that he had passed 20 wpm code when he took the Extra was Brian Smith. I can copy 20, but it sure would make me sweat if I had to do it in front of that same old guy from the FCC. When I was a teenager, he scared the hell out of me.
