It is with great pride that I, RightOnline, and The Lovely Wife (aka "RightOnlinesWife") announce the commissioning of our eldest son (oldest of our seven children), known to fellow FReepers as "Future Snake Eater", as a Second Lieutenant in the United States Army.
F.S.E. was commissioned on Friday afternoon, then received his B.A. degree the following day from NC State University. Combined with his recent marriage to his lovely new bride at the end of February, this has been quite the past few months for the RightOnline household and Future Snake Eater.
He will soon leave for Infantry Officer Training School, then Airborne, then Ranger school......then off to Ft. Lewis, WA, where he will lead a Stryker platoon.
Please join us in congratulating a fine young man who is going to make one hell of an Army officer.
God speed, Chris.
Bump.
Your post brought tears to my eyes!!
You must be so proud! God Bless all of you!
Thank you so much...........and yes, we are. :)
