Yes Sir! Daniel Has Now been Promoted!

You are now looking at 1st Lieutenant Daniel Hills. After waiting on the Federal Government for over 7 months Daniel was finally promoted from 2nd Lieutenant to 1st Lieutenant. He has worked hard to get here and we are so proud of him.
They were so gracious here when promoting him. They coddled my 4 children, gave them candy and let them pretty much do whatever. They were good kids and watched proudly as their dad was promoted.
They started by first reading the Attention to Orders, signed by General Tarbet. I then was able to strip him of his old rank and place his new rank on him. It was a proud moment. He then took an Oath of Office for his new rank as seen in this picture. Daniel was proud to be able to promote with one of his good friends, Garet Cooper down here but also he is in Daniel's unit back home. He is the guy sanding next to him.
We are so proud of him. He has worked so hard down here in flight school and we are truly grateful that he is getting to do what he loves. We are grateful that we get to be with him.

This is us with Daniel's Commander Major Harlow.
We have been greatly blessed in his choice to joint he military and we are so proud of our 1st Lieutenant!
