Jeremy's Major Promotion Ceremony












Jeremy officially pinned on the rank of Major today at a ceremony at his work. Colonel Saltzman presided over the ceremony giving a really nice speech about Jeremy and his accomplishments and giving him the official oath. Colonel Saltzman and I pinned on his new rank on his shoulders. Our neighbor Andy was the moderator of the ceremony which was really nice of him. Jeremy gave a really nice speech thanking everyone including his family. Jeremy also gave me a beautiful bouquet of red roses. Our friends the Brocks also pinned on Major today and they shared in the festivities afterwards. We provided a nice lunch and cake and beer for everyone that attended. There were close to 50 people which was really a nice surprise because so many people were away for the holiday week. The boys were very well behaved this morning despite Aidan missing his morning nap. We are very proud of Jeremy and all that he does in his Air Force career.
