My son in the Army Special Forces has just been notified that he has been promoted to Major, retroactive to last August when the Board met.  I'm very proud of him and now I will smoke the last of the four cigars A.J. Fernandez rolled for me and my late son at Cigar Fest in 2010.

 I have been saving the last one for a special occasion and this is it!

    Always nice to hear good things about a Snake Eater. Special Forces officers are a rare breed. You did a good job raising your son. Congrats to both of you.
