Very Proud Father
I Will Be There. He has a older broyher who spent 6 yrs in Marines. I went to his graduation and cried like a baby when I saw him march by. So If any if you will be at graduation on May 19, and you see a father crying it will be me. I get choked up reading his letters to his brother and sister. When you walk thru the Mall and see the young boys walking with their pants about to fall off, and rings in their nose and ears studs in therir tongue it makes you stop and tbhink how proud you are thar your son or daughter is in a military uniform and doing something to help his country

Welcome Mike
Glad to meet you. I think your P.I.R. date is May 15. My son left March 18. Div 189 Ship 10. I see where your son's div P.I.R.'s the same day James does. I could not agree more about the mall. I am so proud to have two sons that did not follow that crowd. James is only 17 but made his mind up that this is what he wanted. Don't worry you willnot be the only father crying I can promise you that.
