SPC Johnson

July 24

Specialist Johnson worked in personnel when I was at the Officers Candidate School at Ft. Benning. I was from his hometown so he befriended me. On graduation day I wanted my first salute to come from Specialist Johnson so I could give him the traditional dollar. He saw me and waved. I said sternly, "Specialist is that the way you greet an officer?" He stiffened and saluted. I saluted back and gave him the $1.

Isn't God like that, making us humble ourselves first, then comes His blessings"
Spc. Johnson was a blessing to me at OCS.

“There is a friend who sticks closer than a brother." (Proverbs 18:24)
