Finally.

So, last night, I had my CPO board for my Enlisted Surface Warfare Specialist(ESWS) qualification last night.

We went in at 6:30pm, and it ended around 10:20.. When we finished, they sent us outside the Mess, and called us in one by one, starting with me.

They told me that, if it weren't for me, the other guys would have had a much harder time on many of the topics. My weakest topic was Operations.. Since I don't really like it at all, but I had to learn it.

Well, I got my pin, as well as two of the other three.. The other guy just had no clue what was going on, and that's not trying to be mean. He really didn't have any idea.

I get my actual pin tomorrow, not sure what time.. But soon I can wear my Surface Warfare designator pin! I am really looking forward to it.

I am so proud of you, Johnathan. Not just because I'm your mother, but because you are a great young man. Will there be pictures? Can't wait to see you.

There should be pictures.. I don't know a single ESWS pinning where they didn't take pictures.

And, of course.. I can always dress up for you guys.
