My son is a 9/12 USMC and will be heading back for his third tour in a few weeks.

On 9/10, he was a bouncer in a nominally Irish bar in Boston.
One of those places with a catchy name that is a nightclub/pick up joint. My son is a great big muscular guy who had his share of fights while trying to control the unruly and ossified patrons. The only one he ever lost was to a 16 yr. footballer from Ireland. My son said the kid didn't even weigh a hundred lbs.! Long story short, my son was losing so badly, he just picked the kid up and threw him over the stairs onto a landing. The Irish kid got up and came charging back up the stairs! It took four bouncers to eject that boy, who was asked to leave because he was underage. My son said he looked about twelve and just like the little boy on the Lassie show!

You should have seen my son's handsome face! The mother of all black eyes, bashed ears, a bite mark...I told my son that next time, just let the kid have a drink!!

The local beat cops darn sure weren't going to arrest him!
(the kid, not your son)

And God bless your son.
