Sounds like an exciting time meeting her Dita...
I am off to bed now, G'Night all.
This is so much fun, the way we’re all here at once.
Well, I met a soldier today. I have heard about this soldier for the past 3 months. She is the sister of my co-worker.
When my workmate and I started this assignment back in early January, I learned in one of our early conversations that her Sis had just joined the Army... then later heard she would graduate Boot in March.
So, last week she mentioned Sis was in town (”back home”) for 2 weeks on leave. Today, she brought Sis in so I could meet her. What an awesome moment! What a wonderful young woman! I could see her strength and commitment. So, I shook her hand and thanked her, also congratulated her on graduating Top of her Class.
Any questions? :)
Special ping to 183.
what a wonderful story..
any pix?
It’s been a while that we just sat around and chatted with each other!
Thank you for telling us about the soldier. Thank her for me for her service.
I get to do that occasionally and I love how it brightens their faces. It’s like they don’t hear it that often. A real shame!
I’m glad you got to meet your co-worker’s sister, dita. Bet your co-worker was very proud to show her off! Did you get to see her in uniform, or maybe she was in street clothes since being on leave?
