And the list is out....

so it's official. My dear husband is now Major (P) for "promotable"!

The list was released today and he's already gotten lots of nice congratulations emails.

What does Major (P) mean?

It means that after 20+ years in the Army, after working his way up from E-1 private, after several deployments, many schools, and many, many long nights he will finally be getting to pin on this nice, shiny, silver leaf and will be called Lieutenant Colonel:

Now, this won't happen right away. He will walk around with the (P) behind his name for several months--probably until sometime after the new year. But it's coming and he deserves it.

Congratulations, my love!
