My cadets had their Annual Inspection yesterday, and my band was AWESOME! I can hardly express with words how proud I am of them. They were the finale after 4 other displays, and they didn't disappoint. The drummers even threw their sticks at the end of the sequence Drumline style. I didn't authorize that, but it was damn cool. And cocky.

So other training year has ended. I'm a little sad to be leaving this squadron that has and continues to mean so much to me, but hopefully, one day my path will lead me back here.

When the cold of winter comes
Starless night will cover day
In the veiling of the sun
We will walk in bitter rain

But in Dreams
I can hear your name
And in Dreams
We will meet again

When the seas and mountains fall
And we come to end of days
In the dark I hear a call
Calling me there
I will go there
And back again
