It was also a Mother's Day gift our daughter gave to my wife.
Here she is returning to her place after receiving her (blank) diploma (she still has coursework to complete, and she anticipates this in October of this year.)
(Blurry, but with limited lighting, using sports setting, and sweeping with the subject, and a little cropping, oh well...)
Despite the bad weather, the beautiful Fumika looks gorgeous with her purple hakama and pink flowery kimono. A simple hair style gives an overall fresh tone.
After many months of studying and many flights in the T-37 and the T-43, graduation day from US Air Force Undergraduate Navigator Training had finally arrived. From left to right is my dad (also retired Air Force), my mom, my sister Leann, myself, my now ex-wife Linda, and my maternal grandmother.
After graduation, I went on to further training for my position as a Weapons Systems Officer on the McDonnell Douglas F-4D Phantom II. I was in one of the last classes of what produced a "Universally Trained Navigator". That means that even though it was known before I started any training that I would be a WSO on the F-4D with my Air National Guard unit, I still learned to shoot celestial navigation and other forms of navigation that was not used in the F-4. The Air Force then changed the training and called it Specialized Undergraduate Navigator Training and for those student navs that were selected to go to flighter and attack aircraft, the course syllabus was changed and they were not required to learn celestial navigation.

Three years after graduation from UNT, I converted to the dark side when I graduated from Undergraduate Pilot Training-Helicopter and it was all down hill from there!
This is a scan and crop from a 3 1/2" by 5" photo, so the image quality is what it is. In case you can't tell by the hair styles and clothing this was in the mid-80's...1985 to be exact.

After a graduation ceremony on London's Southbank it's time for some photographic souvenirs. The yellow stairs made a popular backdrop.
At Monmouth University in W. Long Branch, NJ. An inspiration for Donna who one day hopes to attend the University as a student. This great lady was born with Cerebral Palsy, a condition which impairs her muscular control...but not her mind and spirit! Donna: m.youtube.com/user/lejaz/videos

On Saturday, we attended our daughter Marie-France's Masters graduation ceremony at Laurentian University in Sudbury. She received a Master of Science Communications Degree after completing her Bachelor of Science Degree from the University of Guelph in 2023. Marie-France's hard work paid off and we are very proud of her.
Congratulations graduates! You set your sights on your dreams and worked hard to achieve them! This is just the beginning of the exciting adventure! What better way to commemorate this special graduation celebration than with this beautiful Graduation Day Barbie® doll. She is wearing a royal blue graduation cap and gown with a collared floral dress. Additional details include a delicate tassel on the cap, a light blue graduation stole and a rolled up "diploma." May your future sparkle brightly!
