Well everybody as of yesterday Jacob got promoted to a specialist and I am very proud. The ceremony was pretty low key and one other soldier got promoted as well. I got to pin him and that was such an honor. Basically the way it worked was we showed up and after the unit got into formation the sgt. said a few things and then Jacob and the other soldier went to the front. Then while some words were being read to the soldiers I went up took Jacobs old rank off and replaced it with a new rank. After that everyone goes up and congratulates the soldiers usually by punching their new rank. It was so cool to be a part of it and I am so proud that Jacob has done so much to get to this point.
