Careful this could cause shiffles among those who enjoy ramantic love stories.
What is the "Green to Gold" program? Is it a mustang commissioning program?
Sort of, off to college for a Bachelors Degree and Military Subjects added in to the course work and summers they get Gold Bars on their shoulders and a College Degree.
So, what does a "Brigade Special Troops Battalion" do? What's special about them?
I SO admire these wonderful kids!!!!!! God Bless them for doing the tough job so that the rest of us can live freely!!!!! I deeply appreciate them!!!!
-- BATTALIONS. The constituent battalions for brigade combat teams will continue the lineages and honors of U.S. Army Regimental Systems battalions -- as they have for nearly 50 years. The special-troops battalion of each Brigade Combat Team will perpetuate the lineages and honors of the headquarters company of the brigade being perpetuated by the Brigade Combat Team.
The unit designs formerly known as SUAs will now be organized into five types: Combat Aviation Brigades, Fires Brigades, Battlefield Surveillance Brigades, Combat Support Brigades (Maneuver Enhancement) and Sustainment Brigades. Battalions subordinate to the support brigades will also continue the lineages and honors of US Army Regimental System battalions.
These unit designations enable the Army to perpetuate virtually all of our regiments and divisions active now, and thus to pass their proud traditions along to our Soldiers.

That would be me *sniff sniff*......Bless them both and keep them safe! They are a lovely couple.
Do they get to snuggle in uniform?

Cute couple, great story, ping
Unbelievable the brass let them do this. I mean for them it's great but I would never have imagined the Army going along with this.
