Well they aren't children anymore they are all grown up. My oldest and youngest are serving in the military and were even in Iraq at the start and my son has been to Afghanistan also. My other son was seriously injured in a car accident when he was 17 and is not able to join the military. He however has made something of his life and works very hard on what he does. I am very proud of all of them for staying away from drugs and gangs. Now they aren't saints so don't get me wrong there but I am very lucky that they are such great kids because I was a single parent for a long time.
I too served in the military but my action was not like these two have, as they can talk about it, but I am so very proud of them and feel sorry for those who try to say something bad about our military members in front of me. Like any true son of the south I will fight for what I believe in and will fight until I am dead. God help the person that mocks the military in front of me. Verbally or physically I will beat their asses for a long time.
