Private Patrick Trumpfheller completes Army Basic Training on Thursday, October 26th, 2017 at Fort Jackson, Columbia, South Carolina. Sandra and I are heading down to join Levi (his wife) and Arizona (his daughter) for Family Day and to watch him march for graduation, an honor that I am blessed to be involved in.
As parents go, we live the highs and the lows with our children, and this is one of many highs that I see coming in Patrick’s future!! I am not sure how many years he will be staying in for (even though it’s the USA), I am proud of him, and will always be impressed with the man that he has become.
After Basic Training Graduation, Patrick will be heading to Georgia for Advanced Individual Training for Nodal Network Systems Operator-Maintainer (25N) . We are not sure where he will be heading after AIT; more to follow!!
