Thank God for Ft. Benning...they produce the finest infantrymen in the world.

My son hated it many days...and has never regretted going there for a moment:) I, being a civilian, had an Aha moment one day while talking with him. He listed a litany of complaints (typical soldier fare) about the DS..the base, the food, on and on. After listening I was alarmed and asked if he was sorry he'd decided to enlist. He sounded shocked- and said "Hell NO, Ma, I LOVE the Army"...
