Stuck boot

I can't seem to boot any version of FreeBSD in AWS EC2 at the moment. I tried
the non ZFS community AMIs for the following versions ...

FreeBSD 12
FreeBSD 13
FreeBSD 14

It seems to get to the point where the network stack initialized as I can ping
the host, but it looks like it gets stuck shortly after that. I tried a
t2.small and several different t3 instance sizes. All of them appear to exhibit
the same behavior. I tried booting an Amz Linux AMI with the same parameters
and connected with ssh immediately after, so I'm quite certain it's not a user
error.

I've attached a screen shot of the console for a t3.micro instance. It just
sits in that stuck state without completing the boot process. When I attempt to
attach the serial console it just shows jibberish as if there was a baud rate
mismatch.
