BRANCH NIGHT....

(Nathaniel (engineers), Taylor (infantry), Jeremy (engineers), Marc (military intelligence), and Russ (infantry)!!!!!
NATHANIEL GOT HIS FIRST CHOICE OF BRANCH IN THE ARMY!!!!!

First let me explain.... branch night up at West Point is when the firsties (seniors) find out what branch of the army they get to be in(about two weeks ago they each put in their branch preferences)!!! It was SOOO exciting, Nathaniel was pretty sure that he would get his first choice of branch but you just never know...the anticipation was KILLING me!!! They each received a sealed folder with what branch they got inside of it....BUT....they couldn't open in until they were told that they could....Nathaniel said it was definently a new form of TORTURE!!!!

Nathaniel is now officially in the CORPS of ENGINEERS!!!!! That means we will be at FT Lenard Wood, Missouri for all of his training (after graduation next spring) and in Febuary 2009 we will find out where we will first be stationed after all of his training!!! It is DEFINENTLY very exciting!!!!
