Here it is. I'm so proud of my husband. He is amazing in more ways than I can count. The Army is dang lucky to have him and so am I.
First I get to take off Mike's Captain Rank and replace it with Major Rank. I've just done this and now we are listening to Mike's new responsibilities.
I get to give him a hug and kiss.
Oath of Office
Our good friend, Vince, standing between Mike and myself. Our other good friend, Jason, on the very end. The kids? Sitting in the van two parking spots away. We kept the sickies out of the pics. They will all thank us later.
Yes, a great moment. It is so good to get away from the railroad tracks after so many years. When the cloverleafs come onboard, it makes such a difference. And, as they change from brass to silver another big step ensues. If you you stay in long enough to sprout wings.....I know how it feels to be selected...but not how it feels to have them slapped down on your collar. Today is a proud moment as you move into a new echelon of responsibility, brotherhood and acceptance. Major,kudos. Dad
