Finally Finished

Today, 116 of us walked across the stage & got our diplomas and knives. Glad it is finally finished and now can I get to my team and start working.

For you BTDTs, I appreciate the advice you dispense to guys like me. For you wannabees, good luck.

Congrats.

If you can impart some current information on your specific NG problems (if any) in your state and group in the 20th Group section, I'd appreciate it.

Congrats!

You have moved on to the 100 meter target. Well done.

Anyone else from PS.com in this class?

It has been a long 2yrs...

Congrats to all the fellow graduates today. It will truly be a day that I am sure we will always remember. I also echo ExSquids sentiments...The guidance and mentoring of those who came before us is something that we should all search out and take full advantage of in our careers. Without these Warriors and their wisdom the ranks of the Regiment would fall thin. Thanks to all and I look forward to my calling.

Oh and Mr. H...Love the handy work sir!

Mentoring

I am certain there is no mentoring going on on ProfessioanlSoldiers.com. (-:
