AK Gov Palin Elevates Soldiers’ Ranks — Exclusive Photos and Video

by Ron Devito on Thursday, July 9, 2009 05:07 EDT

When Governor Palin went to Kosovo nearly two weeks ago, one key aspect not photographed or video recorded was her elevating the ranks of three soldiers. This video shows the promotion ceremony from a distance with voice-over and is the only multimedia available on this specific event. Promotion ceremony starts at 00:44 and ends in 0:52.

Frame grabs were taken from the video, so that this action by Alaska’s Commander-in-Chief is preserved. Should better video or photos become available, they will be posted here.

“As commander-in-chief, Governor Palin is the one we look to for leadership and inspiration while serving and defending the sovereign boundaries of Alaska,” said Lt. Gen. (AK) Craig E. Campbell, Adjutant General of the Alaska National Guard (Kosovo, 2009, ¶4).

Hey Hey Ron, Thanks for posting this and all the research you do everyday. The Governor will be the new Commander In Chief in no time. As a CIC she will not need to fake photo ops nor revise her past positions on how she supports the troops.She would not be caught dead making a statement about the death of Michael Jackson while there are more pressing statements to be made.
