Last Friday's PIR

Hello to everyone who was at last Friday's PIR in the Great Lakes. My son's Div 802 got lots of recognition but all theose men and women were awesome and I am proud to have them all serving our great country. Wasn't it such a emotional moment when the drums were pounding and they opened up that big garage door and there they were marching in place waiting to come in all in thier scarves? Back in 1983 when I graduated there , ours took place in that parking lot where we all had to park before going through the security check point. Things have changed. My son Jeff is now on the main base awating pre dive . I heard it is tough . The weeding out process starts now for Special OPs people.
