With my flight. I am at the front on the left with the guidon - they were supposed to be at attention...
Off to the parade field...
At the parade field with all four squadrons, right before the pass-in-review.
It turned out that I received the "Honor Cadet" award of the encampment out o the 133 cadets there - this is the highest honor given out. This award is given to the cadet who had the most outstanding performance in PT, the encampment test, motivation throughout the week, mentor ship, room-inspection scores, military drill, and customs & courtesies.
Little Alexis wanted the award... she got Cheerios, which satisfied her just as much. :)

Stephen,
I commend you for your exceptional behaviour during the encampment. By earning this reward will it help you earn the Billy Mitchell award?
Thanks. Unfortunately, the only way to get the Billy Mitchel is by being promoted - all the way up to 2nd Lt., matter of fact.
Hey Stephen,
I hear that you are headed off soon!
God speed and I will be praying for you. I really appreciate you and your family. It is a blessing to have like minded friends. Take care!
Blessings,
Kelly

Congratulations on completing basic encampment AND receiving the honor cadet award! I went to basic encampment two years ago and I know how tough it is. Be sure to test for promotion every two months. You should be able to get your Mitchel Award within two years.
We can't wait till your family can visit again!
Kevin
