He’ll be an admiral before we know it. Yeas & Nays has learned that local resident Andy Baldwin, who starred in “The Bachelor: Officer and a Gentleman,” has been promoted from lieutenant to lieutenant commander.
We caught up with Baldwin before Tuesday night’s Washington Kastles match, where he was bringing a cadre of service members for Military Family Appreciation Night. (The team gave a portion of ticket sales to the Got Your Back Network, which serves military families.)
The promotion “happened earlier than expected,” said Baldwin, who just returned from a two-month medical humanitarian aid mission to Central and South America.
Yes, he said, “with increased rank as a Navy physician comes increased leadership roles and responsibility.” And, sounding just like the recruiter he is, he added, “The best decision I ever made was joining the United States Navy.”
