Drill Instructor School Graduation!!

My nephew Andy Winslow, who is in the Marines and serving with distinction, has just added to his resume another reason to be so proud of him!!  He has just graduated Drill Instructor School!  And not only did he graduate but he won the Unit Leader award for having the highest score in the class for drill competition, an event in which DI's march to a platoon, calling various commands and being judged therein.  He has always been the best in his unit since joining the marines and has advanced at an incredibly fast pace due to hard work, sacrifice, and willingness to do what it takes!!  I was also really excited that my sister, Kim, was able to be there to witness this great achievement as well as getting to she her son and daughter-in-law, Andy's beautiful wife Katie!  Congratulations!! ooh-rah!!!!
