Congrats to your boy and his parents.
When I was turning wrenches on B-52s in the late 60s our shop supervisor was MSGT Van Hoy. A great guy who treated his troops well and knew how to motivate them. After I stood Christmas duty in 1966 he drove me 140 miles to Wichita Falls so I could catch a flight to Houston to be with my family for a day-late Christmas. He had me fill out leave papers for 4 days off that he tore up when I got back on time and without getting in trouble while I was gone.
