Thank you, be very proud.
You must be extremely proud of his decision and we are forever grateful to the both of you. I salute your whole family.
“Yesterday, my son raised his right hand and swore to defend this country in the Marine Corps with tears running down his face.”
This not only speaks volumes about your son, but about his QUALITY PARENTS. May the Lord bless and protect your boy, as he defends and protects our country - and thank you for raising such a fine son who has chosen to serve our precious country!
Congratulations. Might I suggest that you check this out: http://www.recruitparents.com/
It is part of www.MarineParents.com It’s a great (free) source of information and support. I’ve been a member since 2004. At the last Marine Parents conference in D.C. earlier this year, I got to meet the former 3/1 Battalion Commander. He was 1st Sgt. Bradley Kasal’s CO during the Battle of Fallujah.
Please thank him for volunteering to do the work that needs to be done on our behalf.
You should be very proud.
Congratulations. You’ve done a great job as a parent.

My 14 yo daughter said that SgtMaj Kasal and all the other Marines at the recruiting station were hot! I better not take her to gradation.
Thank you everyone and we covet your prayers. While my son has had his challenges, I am very proud of him. If any of you folks have ping lists for military families, plese freepmail me.
May God bless him and watch over him.
If you and he think you’re feeling proud now wait until graduation!
The things he learns in the Corps will stay with him and help him his entire life.

God bless your son and your family.
Both my son and grandson are in the Navy, but as an Army vet, I know how tough it is to be Marine.
I fought the heavy weight champ of Quantico in 1959, and woke up three days later with my head about the size of a 10 pound watermelon.
I never fought another Marine.
Welcome to the Marine Family.
much respect for your son
You have every right to be proud. Thank you for raising up a patriot.
Congratulations to your son. May God bless our beloved Corps, and all who serve in it.

Congratulations on joining the military family of families. Although no Marines in our family, I was Army, my dad was Army Air Force, his dad was Army and his dad before him. May God bless your son and watch over him!
