Navy Dads

 

 

We as fathers should always take the time to talk to our sons about KIA's they have

in the field. Reading the loss of one of our Corpsman jared a thought so I pass it along

for your feelings.

A dark time in their lives when a hand held out is always good,sometimes the talk is

short sometimes it goes on for days in e-mail and phone calls and in person.

Their first loss is not possible to describe...shelf blame..if only I had..I could have done

more or a millionwords of pain and loss.

 Their training and asking for more info and techniques is key in giving them the

knowledge to do the very best they can. This idea and thought is given in Corps

school and FMTB because we know the time will come.

 

   Each of them is very special taking on a task that is larger than life and a fathers

time to listen is key.

  The Navy Corpsman truly believes they are "His Marines" and that weight is more

 than you know.........

   Dont be afraid to say to your Corpsman , can we talk about it? Then or later it

helps and the door is open........................

Well said Randy. Very well. It was hard to talk to mine over the phone right after he learned of the news. You can't hardly find the words in the first place, much less their being on the other side of the world in an unfriendly place on limited time calls. And seeing my boy's stories shared on the Facebook wall brought it even closer into perspective.

We'll see how it goes when he comes back. God willing.
