There are certain moments in a person’s life that they’ll never forget, and for this expecting couple, finding out the gender of their baby is definitely one of those moments.
Rather than just have their doctor tell them the exciting news, Sergeant First Class Keith Batchelder and his fiancee Jamie Indiveri decided on a more unconventional option, which was inspired by Keith’s career as a Green Beret with the U.S. Army Special Forces.
The couple found a safe and secluded spot in the woods to place a small box, which held a colored chalk explosive, and when hit, an explosion would be triggered that would produce either pink or blue dust to represent a girl or a boy.
Keith easily hit the mark on his first try and caused an explosion of blue chalk clouds. “His friends and teammates in Special Forces, who are all highly trained in advanced marksmanship, would never had let him live it down if he missed!” Jamie said.
Yet, when the couple posted their exciting news online, people couldn’t believe the way they chose to announce such special news. “Gee. I think I’ll aim a rifle at the representation of my child-to-be and pull the trigger. Sounds like a fantastic idea, honey,” One commenter wrote.
