Title: I know it's off topic, but I'm a little proud
Post by: FLVOL on January 17, 2014, 03:58:34 EST
My oldest just joined the Army today! He's going to the Fort Benning School for Boys and becoming an Infantryman this summer, then on to Airborne school. I'm pretty positive that he will go to Fort Bragg afterwards.

I'm really proud of him, he had to fight through a lot of issues to get to this point, but he was determined to get it done.  :biggrin:
