I spent some time in the ARNG as a Combat Engineer officer, so that probably influenced my son.
My son was at Ft. Knox in Jul-Aug 2017. We also did the family day thing at the theater, and his graduation was outdoors. He actually went between his junior and senior years at Auburn University. After Ft. Knox, he did a follow-on at Ft. Carson, as a "shadow" to a PL, and then started his senior year in ROTC. He was commissioned in May 2018 (as a DMG), got a Regular Commission, and went to Ft. Knox about 10 days later, to serve on the cadre there, so he may have had some contact with your son. Afterwards, he went to Ft. Leonard Wood for EOBC (or whatever it is now), and is currently a Combat Engineer officer with a active duty unit overseas.
