Commissioned on 230105.
Words can only begin to describe the deep feelings welling up inside. I almost cried on the parade square. The symbolic end of the ten months of training, culminating in a grand parade with the president in attendence.
When the president walked past in review, i didn't feel anything. Was i meant to? He seemed like just another old man......
Pride. The pride of commissioning as an officer.
Pride. The pride of commissioning as an infantry officer.
Pride. The pride of commissioning as an infantry officer from Delta Wing.
Pride. Many meanings, many forms. Not arrogance, but pride.
I take a lot of pride in doing what i do. And in what i have done. Hopeully, it goes for the future too.
