Q Course Graduation Gift ideas
Hello,
My best friend will be graduating the Q next month and I'll be flying out for it. I'd like to get him something (initially leaning towards a blade, however, I don't think anything I'd get would beat the Yarborough). He'll be going to 3rd as an 18B. Any ideas would be appreciated.
-Matt

If he earned the green beret, that's more than enough..... no gifts required.
