Ceremony? If you call getting your crow "tacked on" by everybody in your unit, I think I can manage a photo of my extremely bruised arm

Can't find a pic but remember a swarm of bees just off the grinder. One flew down my t shirt and stung me on. My left nipple. When the Commander I was assigned to a Medical Bn so we had a navy commander, asked why I was sweating, when I told him he shook his head and said and you haven't broke POA! That's why I love you Marines! He was a great "commander of Marines" as i remember him!

When I was in Korea there was no ceremony, the battery commander just gave me orders changing my rank. Quite a big ceremony. Then we didn't have boards except E-6 and above.
