Excellent choice I must say as a parent of a soldier which served in the 1/23 and is still serving even though back in Washington.
Kudos!

BG Ham is one of the finest officers that I have had the honor of serving for(1-6 IN, '93-'95)in my 19 years of service and I believe that the Pentagon has gained and incredible asset. Best Regards, well wishes and good fortune to the Ham family!!!
