My son won High Hat this morning

Semper Fi!
 
Pay it forward y'all.
 
If a Marine or any member of our armed forces is behind you waiting to order at your favorite burger or taco joint, or even if its just a cup of coffee at Starbucks, feel free to show your appreciation by purchasing their meal.
 
Thank y'all for your service!
 
PepperDaddler, Six drill instructors are graded on different drills with their battalion and whoever scores the highest is the "High Hat." My son scored a 96 out of 100. Drill Instructors are refered to as 2nd hat, 3rd hat, 4th hat, etc in their position in the Battalion under the Senior Drill Instructor so that is why the highest scoring DI in the initial drill is called, "High Hat."
