Oldest Son Burning Up Promotions
« on: March 21, 2009, 10:03:33 AM »
Just got an e-mail from him.  He was notified that he was selected by the promotion board for promotion to E-7.

He has a high sequence number, so it will be awhile before he puts in on.

He's been in the Army right around 9 years, with a combat tour in Afghanistan with the 173rd Abn Bde and a combat tour in Iraq with 2nd Battalion, 7th Cavalry Bde [Gen Custer's unit].

Glad he's having more success than his predecessor.

A thousand years ago I commanded A/2/7.

Congrats to your son on making the list!
