The Promotion


The Eagle Has Landed! Finally.



Max and Ezra were looking sharp for the occasion.


Adam, son of an Army LDS Chaplain, gave the invocation.


Of course, Brigadier General Nowak had very nice things to say, whether deserved or not.



Captain Phil published the orders for promotion.






First Lieutenant Ephraim pinned on one shoulder.


Sargeant Alex did the other one.



The General readministered the Oath of Office.







Colonel Garner




Grandpa Garner and Betsy looked happier than Izzy.





Now she's happy.






Ellie and Hayley looked very pretty.





Ephraim and Heather came clear from Texas to be in the Pentagon with us.





The cheering section. All the way from California and Utah.




Paula, Izzy and Phil; William is hiding somewhere. Smile Izzy!




Lynette, Ron, Julene and Dad.



Good looking Jensen and Al.





Jensen liked the treats after the ceremony the best.





There's William!



Father and son.





It's been a big, fantastic adventure for over 30 years.
