Congratulations are in order for U.S. Army Yuma Proving Ground (YPG) Chaplain Ryan Pearse.
A promotion ceremony was held Nov. 6 in the YPG Chapel as Pearse was promoted from the rank of Captain to Major.
Garrison Manager Kenneth Musslewhite told Pearse before swapping out his insignia, “Once you come into the field grade, we know you are experienced, and we expect a lot more.”
During a short speech Pearse thanked God, his wife and kids and his non-commissioned officers for their support. He also, thanked those in attendance including Yuma Proving Ground Commander Col. John Nelson, Sgt. Maj. Mark Millare, Garrison’s Manager, Deputy Garrison Manager Dan Carter and Chaplains from Marine Corps Air Station Yuma and MAG-13.
