Lisa is coming to an end at the Defense Language Institue at Presidio in Monterey, California. After being based there for a year and a half, she will be transfered to GoodFellow Air Force Base at the end of December. She has learned Russian and her teachers and her Russian friends all say she sounds as fluent as anyone from Russia and has even picked up their accent!
She has excelled in her studies an was even asked to speak at her graduation. Her speech was incredible! We even heard that in 26 years of hearing graduate speeches in Russian, none could compare to Lisa's! She wrote the speech and a classmate translated it back and forth between Russian and English. It was witty and clever and everyone was laughing through it! What a wonderful accomplishment, Lisa! Поздравления на вашем венчании Congratulations!
