I must say that Ben has never given me any trouble. Is not attracted to drugs and drink. Good enough grades and great scores for the military tests. Top physical shape. Made his decision about the Corps on his own. I played the devil’s advocate. When he told me, “Dad, I want to be the best” that discussion was over.

I could go on and on and on - I’ll shut up with repeated thanks for all the good words from all of y’all
