My brother is in his 20th year with the US Navy, was in GW1, in the Persian Gulf during the Afgan War....He stayed stateside this War. But I constantly tell him how proud I am of him and grateful too!

Tommy Franks reminds me so much of my late father-in-law! Amazing. He was a Captain in the Navy and fighter pilot in World War ll. My husband served in Somalia and Kosovo. Both of my brothers were in Gulf War l. Our son is a Captain in the Engineers and his unit was put on alert. You should be so proud of your brother. They all make us safe!
