Please FreeMail for conatct info, but this would be a great addition to our 3 year anniversary. I'm not sure if I can make it due to work schedules and restrictions on my vacation time.

[concretebob]

PING the list please.

I had to omit the link with blogspot in the url cause I wanted this in Activism not Bloggers.
Sorry about the subterfuge, but some things are more important than protocol.

CB - be sure to tell the graduates and their families they are also invited to our 3 Yr. Anniversary. Tom the RedHunter will be posting details on FR hopefully today, latest Monday.

Excellent! Bring the NCOES to the troop — not vice versa! Congratulations, Soldier!

Proper OPORD format unless things have changed since 2003....six of one, half dozen of another IMHO.

RE: FM 71-1 IIRC.

Send us FRAGOs for updates ;)

GOOD MOVE--just had not thought of it myself!

From THE SNIPER:

I'd never heard of a BNCOC at a location like Walter Reed, so I contacted him. I informed him I was a blogger of a very small milblog, but that I wanted to help. I asked permission to publicize. This was his response.

Re: the blog part... "yes; please fire for effect" and you can use my email as POC for it, but please no phone number. I'll pass along an better update next week, but I'll tell you it was simply awesome to see a wheel chair bound NCO marching troops in the rain. Yes I said she was in an a wheel chair and the element was marching. Of course keeping them in step was a challenge, but it brought new emphasis on the old adage "if it ain't raining we ain't training".

[concretebob]

Actually, its you who are invited to the graduation.
See how deftly I made the connection?
Thats good Marine training.

;)

[trooprally]

You are just bragging how easy it is for a Marine to lead a civilian around. Good thing you and [Mrs] T aren't pinging back and forth. In Olney she's been given the nickname of “Gunny” by Halsey, USMC, Korea.

Just need a time and place, hopefully not early AM or late PM. Too many things already planned that we can't get out of.

[Mr] T

[concretebob]

Thats a compliment...;)
