| Well do you know when he will be leaving? I hope he really enjoys it. My son joined and left a week after graduation and he is in Iraq now. My hubby was there last year as well but he is home now. It was harder this time having 2 of them over there. I hope my son is home sometime in Sept. He is active and my hubby is reservist. Guess if your family is all in military you know what to expect. I'm glad you are excited about this. Good Luck to him.

| I will keep your grandson and your entire family in my thoughts and prayers. I bet you are really proud of this fine young man who is willing to give up so much to serve his country. And yet, I know a part of you has some very valid fears for his safety. Hugs and prayers |

| Congratulations to your Grandson! You must be very proud of him! My son is serving in the Marines and is in Iraq right now. Hopefully he'll be home by 1st week of October. He's actually seriously considering re-enlisting but only if he gets his old MOS of Security Force and can serve here in Washington State at Banger again (which is were he was his 2nd & 3rd year). I guess they're really trying to grow the Marines so they'll most likely agree to it. Please give your grandson a big THANK YOU from me. It's a very honorable thing he's doing and I appreciate it so very much!
