My son felt the same way. He joined right after his 18th birthday. He is now finishing his first deployment that took him to Afghanistan and Kuwait. He’ll be home on US soil at the end of this month. Boot camp is going to be tough, but the graduation ceremony from boot camp where he goes from a recruit to a Marine is a moving ceremony and something to look forward to.
Thats great Welcome home to him...
Thank your hero son for his brave service to our country..
