Yes Sir, I always was proud of him. I wanted to go in the Navy, like my grandpa, (Dad's Dad). He served in WWII in the Solomon Islands. Dad talked me out of it, and its since became one of my biggest regrets. Dad wanted me to go to school, and never wanted any of his kids to have to end up in a war some where. I can remember my lil bro used to stare at Dads medals all the time and say he was gonna have some of his own one day.
Slade joined the Marines in 2004 and did a 7 month tour in Fallujah and a 8 month tour in Rhamadi and received two commendations for valor and several decorations before being honorable discharged as an E5. Proud of him too.
I got into law enforcement instead. One of my favorite pics is of me and Slade both in uniform and me um, teasing him about rank. Cant post it here but if anyone would want shoot me a pm with an email and Ill send it over.
Muted one day, Banned the next....... Ah the life of a DTR 1%'er

Must have been pretty bright to lite up the area like that.
Barny was my role model!
Same time my Dad was there. He was air force from 1950 to 1975. I didnt go army until 1973 so I missed it.
Seems funny now. Lucky we were outside but my Friends wife wasnt real happy about me decorating her dog after it went running into the house.

Red Dawn also.
Parts of Generation Kill kinda irritated me though. Although my nephew said it was not all that far from reality. He was all over the place over there, He was an MP, then later made MSG.
