Son was in during the late 90’s under clinton. Was not a good time even though he wound up as a paper pusher to D.C. Son never made Captain. He went in as a volunteer via enlistment. Son came out nine months before 911. Please tell your Nephew, I Thank Him from my Heart for His Service. Your Nephew is one of the Best of the Best. My Thanks to you also for serving! I never served and I still recognize and know I missed something for not having served.
I was a reservist, and had my dream job, with my name on the door. Decided to can the blue, because of all the B.S.
Looking back, that was a horrible mistake.
