Let's have some great picture memorabilia!

I'm really going out on a limb here with this one. There were some really great photos of RP Members in their very first uniform picture. Thanks for sharing everyone who participated - that is still going by the way!

Now let's get some pictures of the last days in uniform posted!

COL Mikel J. Burroughs I am posting three pictures. The first two are from my demobilization ceremony in the Pentagon in May 2004 with my wife after the award and with my friend COL Bruce Reilly presenting the award citation. After that point I went into a position as a drilling IMA until I transferred to the retired reserve.
In February 2008 I traveled to Fort Benning GA, to see my oldest adopted son get accepted into 3/75 Ranger Battalion. the third picture is me slapping is velcro 3/75 scroll onto his left shoulder.
I transitioned into the retired reserve with no notice of fanfare on June 1 2008. At that time I had diverticulitis and post herpetic neuralgia but didn't know it.:-)

As I never had a retirement, this is the last time I was ever in Dress Blues. Graduation at the SGM Academy. I am standing with CSM Harris, who at that time was the 7th ARCOM CSM.
