Finally, It arrived. For those of you who do not know, ring dance is a huge deal. Ring Dance is the ceremony, and ball where upcoming seniors at military academies receive their academy/class rings. It is also the second most revered ball in our society to attend right behind the Presidential Inauguration Ball. The ring is a symbol not only of your completion of a military academy, but also of your individual class. I will be the 49th graduation class from the Air Force Academy, and thus the graduation class of 2007 has our own crest. It is this crest that is engraved into the right side of the ring, where the academy crest is engraved into the left side. The top of the rings are customizable and thus are unique in nature, yet they all are the same in spirit. Here are some pictures from Ring Dance where my beautiful guest was my fiance Sarah.
My roommate Ryan Stillwell, my old roommate Ricky Ricciardi and me.
Sarah wearing my bling with hers.
The gang, Front row, Shawn Steipp, Bryan Pascuzzi and Ryan Moss. Me in the back.
The view. Here is the view of the Eagle and Fledgling with all the couples walking in front of the fountains on the terrazo.
Sarah and I standing in front of the fountain pools.
Me with my sweet new ring.
Sarah is distracted by the shiny sparkles.
