When Pvt. Spark joined EP4S1 just over 3 months ago, during her first round of her first squad drill, she shot me. Some say it was an accident… Nevertheless, since then, we have all gotten to know her more. Despite some early difficulties, Pvt. Spark worked through them, and we have seen her slowly come out of her shell and grow into a fine soldier. We’re proud to have her in EP4S1 and I feel the rank of Private no longer suits her. Therefore, I see it fitting that she be promoted to Private, First Class. Congratulations, PFC Spark! I hope to see you continue to develop and hone your skills.
