I appreciate your son's service more than words can say, and I think the country has done really wrong by those boys and girls who gave their all. I am ashamed they weren't treated better.

I am blessed that my son came through two tours in Iraq's Al Anbar Province ok. However having three of his comrades, two of them close friends, lose their lives on that second tour did affect him. Just in this past year, almost five years later, do I see him acting more like his old self and not as tense.
I am also blessed that he found a good job working on offshore oil rigs and has received several promotions since starting. He has a good career which is a blessing since I hear of so many veterans that have had trouble finding jobs.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
Quote from Ethel Goss (widow of 1st UPC Gen Supt. Howard Goss) book "The Winds of God"
The navy guys are a bunch of sissies, you are out there out of reach of the enemy.
We army guys have to get up close and personal with the enemy and look them square in the eye. We army guys are the real treasure.
I wouldn't call being in torpedo or missile range out of reach. Saying the Army is better than the Navy, or the Air force, or the marines. I have respect for every veteran regardless of their branch of service.

I hope you're not serious about your comments.
