OUR NEW CAPTAIN




Wow - we are so excited with the news from Iraq & the Army Times.
After careful reading of the Army Times, Jewel discovered the new Captain's list would come out on Valentine's Day (a co-winkie-dink). So Valentines Day came & no list so at 9pm & one more check - there it was the new list. A quick reading of the article & on to the list. Suddenly Jewel is telling Mark that he is "Captain Dad"
They share the same name minus a II behind it. We are very proud although Mark tries to be more reserved than Jewel but not much more reserved.

3 years & a Captain & Ranger trained - we are so proud. We hope it will keep him safer too. Hope springs eternal. lol


We need new updated photos - the Christmas picture with his men is the recent one.
