[QUOTE="bigbrownhen, post: 464982, member: 20495"] hello, i'm new to the site, but felt the need to reply. I also have a son in the military, he is a " tanker" currently stationed in South Korea. It is his first duty station, just got out of boot camp in August. I was a military wife to an Army grunt in the Gulf War so I had a little experience with how it all works, but it is different when its one of your kids. He is 20, but they are always your babies. Lots of good advice in this thread, but Mom to Mom, it will scare the daylights out of you sometimes, thats normal, just dont let them see it too often, we have to be strong, so they stay focused. The ROTC is a good program if he wants an education or be an officer. My youngest son is going to the Navy ROTC this fall in college. It can be a great experience for them either way. I suggest he talkes to some vetrans or current military soldiers if he knows any. They will offer the best advice. All for now, sorry if it was too long. [/QUOTE]
