Mrs. Smith, I've been where your at 3 times now, and those are not the last.

My son also wants to be career military, he's going to school right now, but I'm sure will be back either in Afghanistan or Iraq in a couple of years.

I want desperately for these "engagements" to be over by then, but I highly doubt it.

Here's to keeping the good fight at home, and fighting off all those haters that hate you and your son for the good they offer this country. Chin up!
