Proud Mum











Last evening we got an email from my son Josh, a Marine in Okinawa. On Monday last he put on Corporal! Here are some pics he sent.... does he look like a Marine, or what! The Capt and FSgt are two that he looks to as role models. They are doing a great job! He will go out with 31 MEU, a deploying unit, but we don't know where he will go. I hope he stays safe... when my husband was with 22 MEU in '93-'94 I learned he would go to Bosnia on the radio... not my preferred method of obtaining info! We can find out after he deploys, the movements are classified before execution of orders. Yup, I am a proud Mum!

What a handsome son you have! I hope he has enjoyed his time on Okinawa. My dad was military and we were there from 73-75. It was one of my most favorite places I have ever lived. I am sure it's very different now but it was a wonderful place then. I pray your son stays safe and out of harms way.

Almost Summer, Winter is A-coming.

The day began early with a ride north for a little minor surgery.  The sun was up before we left, but not before we rose.  The sky was a won...
