So I won't.
Thanks for the input. I think this generation of vets will stand out for their HUMILITY as well (not that it is different from prior generations of vets, but it is different from those who tout their “service records” to promote themselves.
My son was driving to grandma’s for Christmas in 2005. My husband in the front seat, my daughter and I were in the back. He was on leave for the holidays. We got pulled over, a little over the speed limit. I told the state trooper it was his first Christmas home in 3 years. I said, “last year he was in Iraq, and the year before in boot camp.” He got off with a warning, but he was so upset with me saying he should not get any special breaks for being a Marine. GEEZ I raised a monster!! Not really.
What could possibly be driving this measurable change over the last two days? Hmmmmmm.
Come on Freepers let's hit those ping and email lists!
