    make us all very proud, especially his GrandPa, Paul J. Kelly who
    was a Marine during WWII on Iwo Jima.

    How old is Dan these days and do you think he'll be all right at his first duty station?

    Dan is 20 HarperJim, and he still has to go to many schools. Foward Artilliary Observer is in two parts, AZ for artil and Calif for radio (I think)

    With a Son in the Air Force who is taking his Sargent's test, and Dan on his way towards a career in the Marines, I am happy that my Sons got the chance to serve their Country as all of the males in my family have done for many generations.

    Marine Artillery Scout Observer Course (Masoc) at Ft. Sill Ok

    On Aug 12th, Dan graduated High Honor Marine for his 30 man class !!!!!

    Now on to Coranado !!!!!

    I know he received an award, but I cant find any links or pictures or any info about the graduation ceremony at all, anyone know where I can find some info ????? The Ft Sill newspaper has all army stuff, and the one Marine page I found is just phone numbers and not news. Thanks

    OUTstanding!

    Wish I could help with the info...probably the newspaper is the best bet, although like you discovered, most of it will be army crapola LOL

    Well its been a while, so I thought I would update on what is going on. Dan got awards at Camp Lajune for being first in his company for physical fitness. Then he went on to his first of two schools for his MOS of Forward Artillary Observer and he was given an award for being first in his class. When he went to the 2nd part of the class in california, he did not come in first, but his buddy did. So now he and his buddy are in the same room at Camp Pendelton at the first duty station, and they decided for an upcoming inspection to put their " Top of Class" awards on a shelf.
    Well some high ranking Marine came through, and decided He wanted the best of the best to serve in Afghanistan. Dan was sent to Kajaki with only a 2 week special
    course, and did not get to go to VIPER for the longer training sessions. He has been in Kajaki for a few months now and has called in rockets and mortar fire and is
    doing his job the best he can. I am very proud of him, as his two MC Grandfathers
    would be if they were still with us. Semper Fi my Son !!!!!!!!!
