My youngest son came home from his National Guard unit last night and he had a gift given to him for me and one for his mother from the Guard unit .
One year of sweat , tears and worry and we finally get a pay back ?
Well to be honest for him I would do it a million times as long as he keeps his promise to me to just come home .
My other son is back in the fight in Afghanistan as I type this so there are plenty more worries ahead but I will always keep the faith .
He has a promise to keep with me as well .
All I can say to both of them is I love you and to let you know . ( Your Dads Hero as well ) .

Honor to you and your boys. Fell the same way about mine, both went to Iraq,. The youngest, USMCR is probably going to see sunny Afgahnistan as well. Much luck to your sons.

My youngest is a light wheel mechanic in the National Guard and my oldest is on his 6TH deployment now. He volunteered for this one. He is 101ST Airborne sniper . I think he is involved with what they call force protection during this deployment but I am not sure of that . Kind of picked it up while talking to him on the phone .

GOD Speed to your sons.
My youngest was Marine of the Year a few years ago. He is in Camp LeJune training troops now. My Son-In-Law is in Afganistan for another month or so.
Thank you to all of our men & women who have, and are now serving this Country.
