Look at the glow those new bars put off!
And speaking of glows!
Look how that diamond sparkles!
The start of the parade.  This is the Reserve Bagpipers
The squadrons, forming up
The STAR of the show
Taking the Commissioning Oath, again!  Guess they were afraid 2nd Lts coluldn't remember things. Mark had to take three Commissioning Oaths!

Mark and David saying a fond farewell to their home-away-from home for the last twelve weeks
Look!  The old man still knows how to salute!
Here's the squalor that I had to stay in on Thursday night
and it cost me $17.00!
