Congrats on the promotion! Bummer about the biking, but by the time Sept rolls around, and least the worst of the hot weather will be over.

Congrats Chief (or Chief select?). Maybe one of these days I'll be Gunny select but for now I'm striving to pick up E-4 :lol: . It's funny how many chiefs I saluted when I first arrived in Pensacola for school. All they tell us in boot camp is to salute everything shiny so it's needless to say I got many strange looks. Anyway, awesome work!
