    Default Proud Grandpa

    Yesterday our 20 year old grandson enlisted in the U.S. Air Force, he is the 4th generation of the family to serve.
    My dad: U.S. Army - WW II; Me: U.S. Navy - Vietnam; Matt: U.S. Air Force - Desert Storm; Luke: U.S. Marine Corps - Bosnia and now Justin: U.S. Air Force. (Matt and Luke are our sons and Matt is Justin's dad.)

    Grandma and I were at his swearing in ceremony and we are very proud of him.

    I know the feeling, Kind of brought tears to my eyes when my grandson graduated from Paris Island right across the street from my old barracks.

    We know the chest bursting pride too. In May our youngest grandson graduated from the USNA and is now an Ensign, following Devil Dog father and grandfather. Son and I pinned on his shoulder boards.
    Artillery lends dignity to what would
    otherwise be a vulgar brawl.
