Bye, Bye Bravo Battery!

Yesterday was Josh's change of command ceremony. This means he is no longer in command here, which means we are one step closer to being done here. We still no nothing about anything concerning our leaving, but we're one step closer to whatever. For those of you who do not know what a change of command ceremony is, or how it goes, take a look at Kristen Golby's post about Jim's change of command. Like she says, it's pretty much the same everywhere. Obviously we didn't get lei-ed (I did get a dozen red roses), or sing their unit's song, but we did sing the Army song. Here are a few pictures of our day. Oh, and unlike Kristen's girls, my boys ran around the back the whole time. There are more pictures and essentially a step-by-step, moment-by-moment recount of the event on my flickr site, which you can access through the box on the left of this site.


Josh did an excellent job as Bravo Battery's commander, and I am incredibly proud of him! I love you Honey!

Happy and sad all at once! Josh did such a good job leading Bravo Battery. I know they're going to miss him. But then that's just Josh...good at everything he does. He's going to rock that career course, too. And whatever comes next. I think he should run for president.

change of command? what's going on next? i thought you'd have another six months or so... big congrats to Josh, although he does have a lot to learn at the Captains' Career Course now.
