Cash in your war bonds, we're all doomed

Posted by AHunt at 20:06
Today the promotion list came out for the Marine Corps reserves. I'm on it. In a few short months I will be a Master Sgt.

To say I am shocked would be an understatement. I have been a Gunny for almost four years now, but I was out for a year of that. I have not deployed to combat since I got promoted as all three of my other tours were as a SSgt. (Serbia, Invasion, Fallujah '04). I barely got to enjoy being a Gunny.

Having said that, I'm very excited. It is always nice to know that I have fooled the Corps again, er, I mean that they have recognized my superior skills and retain full trust in my abilities. Yeah, that's what I meant to say.

We'll be having a big party some time this summer.

    Thanks. I am still having a hard time believing it. I was not expecting it. It'll be a fun party this summer, for sure.
