A U.S. Marine as of 11-02-12 (family day photos) with more to be added

Our youngest son (Caleb) has enlisted up with the US Marine Corp on Tues. Oct 18th 2011. He told us he wanted to serve his Country and Protect our Freedom and will be shipping out to S.Carolina for boot camp next August '12. His goal is to end up in the "Military Police" force and looking forward to traveling. Both Paula & myself are very proud to have such a fine :bowdown: Son and wish him well in his journeys that lie ahead for him. :america: :grinno:

Photo...big fella beside Paula...:D

You should be very proud!  Glad there are brave young men and women like him willing to serve.

Congrats on having an honorable son.  Not many of our youth decide to enlist today...was under 10% last I heard.  I wish I had gone USMC, army screwed me over...blah blah blah won't go into detail.  But glad to see he's going, they won't let you give up...even if you think you want to.  Smart choice.

Best of luck to him. I meet lots of guys on the golf course that are retired military. Not a bad career choice these days!

Congrats to you and Paula. I know you're proud. That's awesome for him to take that kind of proud attitude for his Country. Most want every freedom America has to offer, but do nothing for it, and show no support for those that do.

Yes, congrats and best of luck to him. I too wish I would have chosen something besides the Army, but it is a great career. Hope he goes far!
