SGT Addison

"SGT Addison with his New Rank"
********************************************









The beginning of the Ceremony - separated on 2 sides:

"Leaders" & "Followers" ~ basically "NCO's" & "Soldiers" - Justin started out as a "Soldier"






Justin & Brito called up to the front of the Battallion for their Promotion Ceremony.




At this point, we as the Family were also called up to stand behind them infront of everyone. ;o)







Captain Lowe giving a very good speech about both Addison & Brito's profiles & then about how they need to "break all ties" and "cross over" to become a Leader....


However, all I got out of this speech was MO'MONEY!!! lol





Captain Lowe Ripping off Old Rank....










Sgt Martinez Slapping new Rank on!


1st Sg Craven giving Justin his Orders














After the Ceremony and the changing of the Ranks, and both "SGTS" gave acceptance speeches, Captain Lowe stated that this had to be "Sealed with a Kiss"

- at this point I stepped up and gave my SGT a kiss!!! WOOT WOOT!





Then, me and Brito's Hubby left the stage for the rest of the Ceremony...
1st Sg Craven given the Speech to the New Leaders
about "Crossing Over" and asked them if they were
ready to accept the Challenge.....they both accepted....
Then he asked the Leader side if they will
accept these 2 to their side...
They accepted....HOOAH....



At this point, they were ordered to go to their new, deserved place in line.....They Ran over there!






Taking their place on the "Leaders" side
They sure did fit right in...


Getting Congratulated from everyone -
it was a very long line!
