So for the past few days I've been down in Fort Jackson, SC at my brother in laws graduation from basic training. What an exciting and emotional experience it was! Here is a picture of my wife and I with him after the graduation ceremony. We are very excited and proud of him!

    This was by far the neatest thing I saw there. This started out as an empty field with trees on the far side. Then a bunch of smoke was tossed and then as the smoke cleared there were over 1,000 new soldiers standing in formation!

    That is awesome. I can only imagine they awe at the filed with all the soldiers after the smoke started to clear.

    Super cool! All the best to your bro-in-law and his fellow soldiers!
