:D Hello to everyone!

I am not in the services but I am a proud Mom. Ever since my son started the process to join I have been educating myself about everything & anything he is & will be doing. (so I know what he's talking about when he calls...lol)
Right now he's at Fort Knox for Cav Scout 19D he will graduate in March & is in Blue phase of OSUT.
I always knew since he was knee high that he would join the military it was just a matter of what branch and what job!
Im very proud of him & send my prayers everyday.

Thanks

Hm, kinda more Universial like Military Mom's ;)
 
Welcome ArmyMom. Feel free to ask any questions about the Army or the military in general. There are lots of folks here with lots of military experience and some of us with our own sons in the military too.
 
Thanks

I told my Sons a long time ago as they were growing up
DO NOT let anyone ( including myslef) step in the way of
your Dreams or what your Heart Desires. I also told them
I would support them 100% in what they decided to do for
a career.

I also had always know he was going military Or Law Enforcement
From the time he was small. For many yrs he had talked about
the Navy and He had also joined The Police Explorers group which
he loved. He just wasn't sure what Direction he wanted to go in.
He knew somewhat my feels about Marines ( no offense to the Marines Here) I didn't want him to go Marines. The Marines have the most who
come home in Body Bags :cry: It took him months before he could
tell me WHEN he did My Heart Dropped BIG TIME. I didn't not discourage him from not choosing. I still support him 100%

His Statement to me was " Mom, If I get Deployed and I have to fight
for my country I WANT to BE Front LINE"

It wasn't easy for me to Hear that I have always been CLOSE to my
Sons and The have always BEEN my PRIDE & JOY!!

He also has already decided that in yrs to come IF and WHEN he gets
out of the Marines his next Career will be Law Enforcement.
