Although it was technically a few days after the real Mardi Gras, Fort Irwin celebrated on Saturday so that the soldiers that work so hard could be part of the celebration. The day began with a 5K that required every participant to wear a hat, followed by a parade made up of primarily unit "floats" and the day then finished with a kid centered festival. I had the lead on the event with a ton of help from the G3 for the parade, really they made sure that part went off without a hitch and my guys, Mike and Ed, made sure the rest was handled. Thanks guys.
Now that's cocky, but I like it.
Sanele, my Autocrafts manager. One of the nicest guys you'll ever meet.
This guy had a backpack full of hats that he was sharing with the kids.
Colonel Kurt Pinkerton, our Garrison Commander. Look at that spirit, he got spirit, yes he do, he got spirit, how bout you!!
