<p>So, I have been renamed by Bullet as SCAOL. :slight_smile: I just returned from 5 days out at Seymour-Johnson. What a weekend!</p>

<p>I enjoyed my first game of golf ever with Bullet’s S and other friends which was a blast and very entertaining! Talking with the local flight doc and sitting in the Strike Eagle sims was cool and helpful! </p>

<p>Watching Bullet take-off with the rest of the 4-ship for his fini flight was fun. Then helping his kids hose him down was VERY fun. :slight_smile: Couldn’t hide! Seeing the camaraderie in the squad bar after with Bullet and his fellow brothers was eye-opening. </p>

<p>Then, the ceremony itself and the festivities! Man, what a day! The ceremony really was moving, everyone including Bullet speaking and the tears from Pima (chocolate mess right?). But 6 hours in the O-club afterwards celebrating was the greatest experience. I have many bruises from playing two CRUD tournaments (WHAT A BLAST!), memories watching Bullet do a bathang! :slight_smile: :slight_smile: and having all the wives make me dance out on the dance floor with them! Again, WHAT A NIGHT!</p>

<p>To all here at USAFA, we haven’t even seen the tip of the iceberg. Seeing the retirement, the guys, and what we have in front of us. I can’t believe they will pay us to do this. It was incredible. If you ever get the chance to go to a ceremony or anything like it, do it, my eyes were opened. </p>

<p>The grass only gets greener!</p>

<p>Thank you again Bullet and Pima, you guys were amazing and I’m glad to have been a part of it all!</p>

<p>It was a true pleasure to have you here to share the retirement celebration with Pima, myself, and my family. We can only hope we've given you a true taste of what the real AF is all about: the comraderie, the traditions, the great people you work with and associate with everyday. Keep up the studies and the attitude at the Springs; I KNOW you'll be a great addition to the service. I can ride off into the sunset happy to know I'm leaving America's security in your competent hands.</p>

<p>And work on that golf game! </p>

<p>All the best,</p>

<p>Bullet</p>
