One class down and one to go!

Yesterday, Aaron graduated from the Maneuver Captains Career Course. It was an hour of speakers, awards, diplomas, and propaganda videos (Fran, Karen and Erin, I know you know what I mean!)

The last six months have been preparing the soldiers to command Armor and other combined Army units. The course teaches tactics, maintenance, training methods, leaderships and staff function just to name a a few.

Here are a few pictures from before and during the ceremony:

His small group class.

Isaac, Aaron and Titus (from Switzerland).

My buddy, Paul and I.

This one is obvious.

There were 13 of us last night who went out to 4th Street Live in Louisville to celebrate and say our goodbyes. It was the first time I had been there and we had a blast. We started with good food at The Pub and then headed to Felt where we played pool and talked for hours.

On Monday, Aaron starts the CAV Leader Course. This class will only be 3 weeks. Then we will be headed off to Maine!
