Well I have family that has served, is currently serving and a son that is leaving on April 26th for Fort Benning, Infantry. I have told him, your oath is to the Constitution, just like his relatives have that have and are serving told him! In fact they tried to talk him out of joining while Obama is President, however, it is something he has always wanted.....so we will live with it!

Have you had a relative deploy under Obama? I have and it is a sick feeling.

It would appear to me that he understands the concept of Duty, Honor, Country. You should be very proud of him.

I have served on Active Duty from JFK to RR. I did not admire LBJ nor JC but I soldiered on. My son has been on AD since 1990 and has been subjected to WJC and now Obongo. But he has soldiered on.

Perhaps you can now understand why I cannot respect Lafkin.
