Son is approaching 10 years - service academy grad, with 3 deployments, just promoted to major
Very proud of both Marines -- but this Army vet with 22 years active / reserves ( a proud mustang ) cannot yet shout out while sitting with my Annapolis grad son at the December Army / Navy game -- Go Navy - Beat Army
Marines are a special breed !!!!

Great post Winni Retired!!... and I thank you ALL for your service to our country! My hitch was up over 35 years ago in the Corp (Reserves) but as they say, "once a marine always a marine"!
