Gift #486- Promotion Day!




Hank was promoted to Lt. Col. On Monday (Dec 1).  We had a very impromptu and informal ceremony in the middle of our living room.  His very kind friends came at 7am so they could celebrate with him before the kids and I left for Yokosuka.  Frank Savarese read the promotion warrant, Jack read the oath, and Josh ripped off the old patch and replaced it with the new.   It was short and sweet.  Hank thanked his friends for coming over so early.  They joked and said that they didn't know that they had a choice.  :).  Congratulations Lt. Col. Thomas.  We are very proud of you.
