The Last Day of School

Usually the last day of school is bittersweet this year it was particularly so!

Assumption of Command

Chuck assumed command of the 419th Mission Support Group in April, 2008. This link is an article in the Hilltop News, the base newspaper! http://www.419fw.afrc.af.mil/news/story.asp?id=123098901

The First Look at Utah

Our first trip to Utah was in January, 2008. We knew that there would be snow but, WOW! We thought we were prepared - NOT!

The Un-Official Pinning On of the Eagles!

After accepting the assignment to Hill AFB, Chuck was authorized to pin on Colonel rank January 15, 2008 - Happy Birthday Angie! http://www.homestead.afrc.af.mil/news/story.asp?storyID=123082239

The Adventure Begins

Chuck was selected for a promotion to Colonel in the USAF, Res. in December 2005. The promotion was exciting but brought with it a predicament. There was no position available at Homestead Air Reserve Base for a Colonel at the time, so, the waiting began. We always knew that if Chuck was selected that we might have to relocate, however, I don't think we ever thought it would really happen. There were many rumors of opportunities and plans that could include the chance to "pin on" the eagles but time passed and the possibility seemed more and more unlikely. We knew that God had a plan and we were just waiting to see what it was. Almost two years to the day of selection to Colonel, the call came that Chuck was selected to fill the position of Mission Support Group Commander, 419th Fighter Wing, Hill Air Force Base, Utah. Thus, begins our new adventure!
