Mario graduated from his Warrant Officer Candidate Course today. We pinned him WO1 at the ceremony and his TAC officers encouraged my nephew to punch his rank so Mario would earn his "blood rank", of course Evan didn't draw any blood. I'll post picture of it all a little later. I just wanted to make it known that he did graduate.
Also, I wanted to mention that the first ever combat amputee went through Mario's class and has graduated as well. He'd lost one of his legs in the war and still went through this rigorous training that even candidates with both of their legs struggled doing.
I'm very proud of all the men and woman who finished their training today. Congratulations to them all! Photo's to come later. My husband could use some relaxation so I'm handing the internet over to him, since our router isn't with us. :D All the best, everyone!
