Re: gen power of attorney

He is the principal, you are the agent. He has to sign the document in front of a notary. Under the US code, military officers are allowed to administer oaths, and can effectively notarize such a document. He needs to sign and notarize where he is; he can't sign it, send it to you, and have you notarize it at the base. It must be done where he is.
