Congrats!!PS.... whats mama think about it???She was very nervous and excited.There comes a time when he's got to make his own decisions.I was happier with the Corps than a fast food place (no offense to fast food chains,or the folks who work there).I wanted him to go where he can have a career if he chooses,and learn something.He wants to be a tank mechanic or weld.Either way,and whatever he decides (or they decide for him),I'm good with it.

Big news (for me)...... Reply #14 – August 05, 2009, 08:22:13 PM Congrats and thank him for us. While there are questions regarding the use of troops, they still protect us all at home and every person here should be grateful. I hope he does get to do what he wishes for. Either way, he will quickly grow up/change and make friends for a lifetime. Quote Selected
