I am enlisting in the Texas National Guard. I hope to be approved for full time status.
I realize this will be an issue if violence breaks out during my enlistment term, but honestly I can’t deny that the inevitable conflict is part of the reason I am enlisting. I want the training and experience. I want to serve my country. I want to HONESTLY be the kind of man who is able to defend my family and my country, and has earned the right to call others to carpet.
And I want to know that I did everything I could, even if I didn’t always get things right.
God bless you .. you’re a warrior for freedom.
God bless and protect us all and save our precious
America.
Somehow, I knew from your first post to me, that you’re one of our nation’s finest, and by that I mean, you’re enlisting for all the right reasons. I have a grandson (my eldest grandson) who’s currently in boot camp at MCRD in San Diego (his and my hometown). He enlisted in the USMC Reserves for the right reasons too. Young men like you two, humble me and also make me proud. America is in good hands. God bless you and thank you.
