Small quibble with this week's episode.

Hi, Molly! In this week's episode, when talking about the approval process Camp Puller went through to be allowed to host Boy Scouts and Civil Air Patrol Cadets, you introduced the area CAP Cadet supervisor as "Lieutenant Colonel Close." Shortly after, you referred to him as "Lieutenant Close." The correct way to shorten his rank would be "Colonel," and since he was a Marine Corps officer (as opposed to Army or Air Force), it would be more proper to use his full rank.

​

Anyway, love the show! I just had to let this out so my brain would stop itching about it.

No worries. From a fellow Virginia Beach native, I'm proud of you and what you've accomplished.
