Quit staring at my wife's Butt |
23 years old has a great job, treats my daughter great, just an all around good person. Decided he wanted to go into the marine reserves. At first we are all like what ?? but after he explained it has been something he has always wanted to do we all backed him up 100 percent. The wife and I are like nervous for him, it's been kind of weird. Wife cooked him a great big dinner, favorite pie e.t.c. he knows it's going to be tough and has done his best to prepare for it. I'm sure my daughter is going to be a wreck for awhile but she is going to college and has a great job to keep her busy.This message has been edited. Last edited by: XLT, | ||

Good on him! Funny, today we stopped to pick up a bite for lunch after grocery shopping and while waiting in line we saw the recruiting center across the way. A van was out front obviously loading up some new recruits to take them to the airport. Several family members standing around saying goodbye. I smiled thinking about how their lives will never be the same and hoped they had someone in their family give them a heads up on what they were getting into! “Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.” - John Adams | |||

That made me laugh out loud. I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all. -Ecclesiastes 9:11 ...But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that sweareth by Him shall glory, but the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped. - Psalm 63:11 [excerpted] | |||

I'd like to congratulate you on raising your daughter well, and her choice in men. If your daughter is worried about this next chapter of her boyfriend's life, tell her to look at it like this- Marine Corps Reserves It's like 12 weeks of summer camp! He'll come back in good shape, probably a nice tan, saying "sir/ma'am" to everyone, and a pretty cool (and low maintenance) haircut. Did I mention a really cool new set of clothes! Especially the Blue one! Then it's off to MOS school (any idea of what his MOS is going to be?), more fun and games at camp. Hell, there's even "Camp" in the name- Camp LeJeune, Camp Pendelton... Then there's 29 Palms! What isn't cool about a place called 29 Palms?!?! After that, it's one weekend a month, and two weeks out of the year. Tell her to watch the movie "Stripes" a few times. (STAY AWAY FROM FULL METAL JACKET! That's a no-no for about the next 6 months!) ______________________________________________________________________ "When its time to shoot, shoot.

Tell him that if he doesn't write regularly, you'll start sending him "care" packages. | |||

Congrats to EVERYONE!! It’s really neat he’ll have your full support...two thumbs up. "If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24 | |||

He’ll graduate Boot Camp from MCRD San Diego if he’s west coast. Not hard to find, it’s right next door to the airport. DO NOT go to 29 Palms! I wouldn’t wish that on my worst enemy. (Don’t let your daughter read that part!) Reassure your daughter that he’s going to be OK, and make it out alive, and not to answer the door if Jody comes a knockin! ______________________________________________________________________ "When its time to shoot, shoot.

I stand corrected its Camp Pendleton. And I will answer the door if Jody comes a knockin. | |||

If you go to Camp Pendleton to see him graduate, you'll miss the graduation. He won't graduate boot camp at Pendleton. It'll be at MCRD San Diego. | |||
