Celebrating


After being promoted to Major Joey, he bought chips, dip, and non-alcohol beverages for the guys.
About the previous pictures-the first one is of Joey receiving the Bronze Star Medal. A third star General of the Marines did the ceremony.
The second picture is his company back at Fort
Rucker. It is his change of command ceremony. He was leaving as Company Commander for Iraq.
Many of his soldiers were at the airport at 6:00AM on a Saturday to see him off. It was so moving to see the camaraderie between these people. The military is one big family-looking out for each other. God Bless the U.S.A.
