One of the young adult soldiers in Carthage Ward reenlisted in the Aviation Brigade for two more years. He invited us to attend the ceremony. It was up at the airfield. The brigade headquarters people were there. It was one of the few days with clear blue sky we have had. After the swearing in the Colonel gave a little speech and said that they are way ahead of their reenlistment quota for this year. This young soldier is a returned missionary from Idaho. The hats were interesting. The cowboy looking hats are of the Calvary unit. They are authorized to wear in formation if you are in a Cav. designated unit. This unit is scheduled to deploy in Nov. o8 to Iraq. This is called a swearing in ceremony, and words of the oath reminds one of Moroni's title of liberty. Young adult family evening continues to grow in numbers and activity. Love Mom and Dad, we miss you.
