I had a CO that explained his reasoning on re-enlistments. He said that there is nothing greater than a re-enlistment and that anything goes as long as there aren't regs against it. If the re-enlistee wanted to do it, then do it. This CO hated heights, and one of our sailors wanted to get re-enlisted by the CO on the highest yardarm at sea. The CO sucked it up, did it (while shaking almost uncontrollably) and the sailor had a blast. So, if the soldier wants the flag, and it means something, then absolutely!

What were you doing in Adak? I had a cousin in the CG who was SAR swimmer up there. He loved the area.

I can't think of a greater honor to that Soldier's grandfather.
