He got his...

A proud moment from Brendan and his family

...wings! It's official. Brendan McCarthy, now Ensign McCarthy, graduated from Navy flight school in Florida late last month. Surrounded by family, friends, and someone with a lot of medals, Brendan received his wings as well as his orders. While his orders could have taken him to the South Pacific or the West Coast, Brendan, if you will, "landed" in Jacksonville, Florida. On being in Jacksonville, Brendan said, "It's great. There are a number of Stedsmen in the area, and rumors are that in 2016, ND could be playing Navy right here in Jacksonville." Well, now knowing this, I will ask for a plane ride AND a spare room for the game. Thanks in advance!
