Jesse's Commissioning

Since Jesse K. had asked Dad to administer his oath for his commission into the U.S. Army, Dad, Mom, and I (T.J.) drove out to KU this morning to attend. Dad hadn't worn his uniform really since he retired ten years ago! It was lots of fun!

Administering the Oath

First Salute

Since Eric K. (E-2) was able to attend the oath before reporting back to his post, he was able to give his brother the first salute and receive the silver dollar. Very special!

We thoroughly enjoyed the morning and wish Jesse the best as he serves his nation.
