I wasn't sure why they called up a specific pax; I figured there was no way there was only 1 GS on a widebody SFO-IAD, and they went to military before GS anyway.
There seems to be little consistency on when they call for families with young kids, too.
In some markets (such as BOS and SEA), the GS agent calls up GS pax by name before boarding begins to introduce him/herself. Perhaps it was the case that the GS agent did this mid-boarding to find a "missing" GS pax who had not yet stepped forward.
