Army Boot Camp for Travis

On January 12, 2015, Travis Dowty shipped out and arrived at Ft. Sill, Oklahoma for Army Boot Camp. He enlisted in the prior November and accepted the position of Dental Specialist. After 10 long weeks and lots of letters, we arrived to watch him graduate with his battery.
March 26th & 27th were our 2 days together. Thursday was spent just hanging out, eating a couple good meals, touring the Field Artillery Museum at Ft. Sill and lots of visiting.

On graduation Friday, the ceremony started out the day and we finished it off with a steak dinner and lots more visiting. There just didn't seem to be enough time to hear it all and get caught up. Before we knew it, Saturday morning arrived and Travis was put on a bus for AIT at Fort Sam Houston in SanAntonio, Texas where he will spend 8 weeks learning his job. We are looking forward to the few weeks of leave he will have between AIT and his first assignment.
