August was a big month for Jake. After returning to school, he marched in the Acceptance Day parade. Only this time, instead of being the one accepted, he was the one accepting the doolies into the cadet wing, pinning shoulder boards onto their shoulders.

A few days later, he attended the Commitment Dinner, where he committed to remaining at USAFA for the next two years, and serving after that. It’s official!

We celebrated with him from afar, thankful for the way God led Jake on this path and continually walks with him. Jake sent a couple pictures from the night of the dinner.

The Lord makes firm the steps of the one who delights in him (Psalm 37:23)
