A Few New Things

Here I am, once again playing catch up.  Wow, a lot has happened in the past week!!!  The Nakamura house will need it own post . . . eventually.  But the rest can be lumped together, so here goes:

100_6187 Jake’s promotion to Captain.  (Jake left, Col. Ramey center, Lt. Col. Burke right, holding promotion warrant)

100_6190 Pinning performed by myself and Lt. Comm. Jim Roche.
Edit: Jake has informed me that I mis-abbreviated Jim's rank; apparently it should LCdr.  Silly Navy!

100_6191 I, Jacob Wilde, do solemnly swear to tell the truth, the whole tr . . . Wait a minute, what’s going on here?

100_6214_edit Let this be a lesson to you . . .

By the way, I feel great and hope to be able to keep working out all the way through this one like I did last time.  I’ll post belly shots here too when I get to that point.

100_6232_edit Another new park.  If you’re starting to get the idea that this island is covered in these things, you’re right!

100_6231 Fun with Mom and Dad.

100_6228_edit As well as fun with local kids.

That’s all for now, folks.  Have a good one!

  1. Thanks again for the pictures and updates. It's fun to see life in Okinawa through your eyes. And congrats to Jake on his promotion and to Heidi for being a good wife and supporting her husband during these fun days in the USMC.
    Love, Mom and Dad
