I hope that everyone takes a minute away from the barbeque and the beach to remember our soldiers today.
Mr. F was in Hawaii this week to visit our own favorite soldier. Kristin had her Change of Command ceremony after serving as company commander for over 25 months. Her soldiers gifted her with a signed Jolly Roger flag (her company liked to yell “Arrghhh” frequently), among other more serious things. Now she gets to enjoy some well-deserved time off before heading off to her next assignment.
Mr. F and I frequently tag-team our daughters, who always seem to be off and doing interesting things, and it was his turn to travel. Not only had I been able to see the Change of Command when Kristin took over command, but I also needed to do that thing called my day job. Poor Mr. F went directly from his flight from Hawaii to San Luis Obispo onto our flight to Chicago for APS. He’s very happy to be home, although it was a terrific week!
Here’s Mr. F’s view of the latest Change of Command.
