It had been a historic night for the Georgia Army National Guard’s 648th Maneuver Enhancement Brigade. The Soldiers and families had enjoyed an evening of entertainment and awards at 5th Annual Hydra Ball at the Columbus Iron Works, Columbus, Ga. when Col. John Gentry, commander of the 648th MEB announced a special presentation.
“Staff Sgt. Jermaine Walker and (Schreka Davis), post,” said Gentry. The young couple made their way to the front of the cavernous hall. Once they had reached the commander, Walker began his presentation. Turning to Davis, Walker dropped to one knee and held up a ring. As tears welled in Davis’ eyes, Walker spoke.
“I want to come in front of my family and friends and ask the woman I want to spend the rest of my life with: Baby, will you marry me?”
Although the answer was lost in thunderous applause, Davis’ answer was yes as she took Walker in her arms.
