If he did it, it's not bragging! OUTSTANDING!


Two things bring me to tears. The unconditional Love of God,the service of the United States Military,past,present,and future.

I would rather meet
a slick-sleeve private,
than a hollywood star!

Congratulations to him. I hope he becomes a general officer.

My father left the Marine Corps as a one-stripe private. He didn't serve much active duty and was a reservist for years.

But my father-in-law retired from the Air Force as a colonel, having joined the Army at the beginning of World War II.

That’s great! You’re rightfully proud; nothing wrong with saying so.

Thank you for sharing! You deserve to be proud.

Congratulations Johnny. I read this to my wife the other night, and I thought I had replied. What a great accomplishment. I’m very happy for you, and your son.
