Fellow pipers, break out your best stuff and celebrate a bowl with me in honor of my oldest son. He was accepted by West Point! All that hard work and smarts paid off...must get it from his mother.

"Dad, how do you feel about me being an officer?" he asked with proud tears in his eyes. I said, "I never knew an officer I liked, but maybe you'll be the first. For me and all of those who will serve with him."

Aww man, now I'm getting misty eyed. Damn allergies.
Celebrating his, and your, good fortune with some GH&C Cherry Cream Flake and some Comandon VSOP Cognac:

Despite my concerted efforts to steer him away he's sticking with Infantry. He made a perfect score on his SATs, graduated as a National Merit Scholar so like what the hell? But he's got it all figured out each step of the way, his career track. He's a very driven and ambitious young man.

Fantastic. An Honorable profession. I bet he’s got his eye on Airborne, Air Assault and a Ranger tab in his future. Best wishes!
