LOA and Nominations

Senior Prank

DS pulled a senior prank 1 month before Indoc. They were going to move all the concrete parking lot stops into a pile. On the first try concrete dropped on his hand. Hand swollen, finger nails blue with blood under the nail and My wife and I are TDY to Alaska. flight doc friend has it xrayed no broken bones but swollen and now the nail falls off. he spent the next month worrying if it would be healed enough for indoc. Way too much worry that month. No one should be immune from the bubble wrap.
 
Quick update... DS got an early Christmas present on Thursday... a nomination from Senator Toomey! Combine that with his LOA and I believe that will add up to an appointment offer in the next few weeks! He is very excited!
 
Congrats!
