You should be especially proud of his promotion because the sections of his platoon are split, so he is operating independently without the oversight of his platoon leader and platoon sergeant. A lot of responsibility and I'm sure he's doing great. Hope all the 2nd Platoon guys are well.

Is that motor pool squared away?
