Commissioning

Post #14

Commissioning

I wanted to make this post about commissioning because that is exactly what is going to happen tomorrow. I am beyond excited. I still remember the day that my dad and I went walking and were first talked about the option of the military. I was 9 years old. Here I am 24 years old and I am about to swear an Oath to support and defend the constitution of the United States of America, the best country in the world. It is crazy to think that it is all finally coming together. There were definitely nervous moments and scary moments throughout the process, but tomorrow is the day that I will raise my right arm and swear to go to the point of even potentially giving up my life to the aid of others. I am beyond being able to fully express the things that I am feeling. I can say that I am so grateful for everyone in that process that has helped me along the way. My scout leaders, to AFJROTC leader, teachers in High School, coaches, AFROTC cadre, fellow students, friends, Mom and Dad, and my beautiful and wonderful wife. There is absolutely no way that I would be graduating from College at BYU or commissioning into the world finest Air Force without all of these people. I am so grateful for the support and sacrifices that all of these people have made for me, and I look forward to repaying those sacrifices to providing that for the next generation as I move along in my career. Today a Cadet and Student. Tomorrow a 2^nd Lieutenant and Pilot in the United State Air Force! FLY, FIGHT, AND WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
