BILOXI, Miss. (WLOX) - It’s a big deal to be promoted to major.
Dr. Amanda Delgado is an OB/GYN at Keesler Air Force Base – and proud of it.
“And that’s important to me that I’m taking care of these people who have committed to their country,” she said.
And her parents are proud as well.
“You get to serve your country, you get to go to medical school and you get to provide medical assistance to enlisted people like myself and officers and military folks,” said her father, Jose Victor Delgado.
But that’s not the end of the story. After Amanda’s promotion, she administered the oath to her younger brother, Jose Delgado II.
“It was an incredibly special moment,” he said, “not because it wouldn’t be possible, but just because how amazing it was that we could do this ceremony where she promotes and I swear in at the same time. So, it was very special.”
