My wife enlisted on 27 Sep 12. This had been a dream since she was in high school and the day had finally arrived. It was a very proud moment for me and the girls.
Of course in military fashion, it was a morning of hurry and wait. She will soon see exactly what I am talking about once she gets to BMT and Tech. 😃
You could tell she was a nervous wreck and had the butterflies a dancing in her stomach. As anyone knows that has enlisted, it is very exciting and nerve racking before you swear in to the Armed Forces, but after you swear in you are completely filled with excitement and pride. I know it was that way for me. After she swore in, she started all her in-processing for her new squadron since she won't be leaving for BMT for a few more months. She will be starting her first drill here in a little over a week.
Once my wife made it home from running around Little Rock AFB, we sat the girls down and told them what mommy had done. All three girls were very excited and proud.
Great idea for this blog and I hope to follow it. Congratulations to your wife.
