Do you have what it takes to be a member of the worlds most prolific winning team?

One of the things that all young men and women wonder is that when the real test comes what will you do? I have the unusual experience that both my son and daughter are Army veterans. It is my belief that in 8 weeks of basic that you do answer the question above.

When I joined the 82ND, I had a fear of heights.

My first ride in an airplane ...

I parachuted out of it!

Thanks & point to you

My son joined the Marines to"Do something hard to do, something that not everyone can do">

I will will admit to standing in the gym at SOI graduation, listening to 200 young men singing the Marine Hymn, it brought tears to my eyes. I was not alone.

I wish someone would post the old Army Airbrone poster, THey join because they are different - very effective.

FWIW, you may have to wait, but a cell of 3 B52 trumps a battery of 155s every time.

Have fun and my the Lord bless and protect our troops everywhere in this season.
