From one proud Dad to another, it's a great feeling to see ones son making a successful career out of the military. congrats on raising a fine son. Dave
Don - congrats on rasing a fine son. Might I suggest you give him the lecture on adding bran to his diet? From the look on his face, he might need to know that info!
Donnie called yesterday from Camp Lejeune all happy and relieved. In bootcamp on the M-16, he qualified as Marksman saying he rushed too much. Yesterday he shot Expert on the A-4 so he is so happy.
Guess he can give me back my USCG M-16 Expert Medal I loaned him.
Don, you should be proud having raised a son who is willing to put service to his country before service to himself, as well as having raised an expert marksman! Thank you for your families service to our country! -Jeff

Thanks Jeff. I don't know if you are aware but my younger brother is at the CG MSST in Kings Bay, GA as well. He's a BM/Cox'n. I'm proud of him as well.
Congrats Marine Dad and welcome to the club. I have 2 in the Corps. Your right, the smile goes away in boot camp. Even after the grad. fm boot camp, MCRD San Diego in our case, still no smiles. Once you get them home its a different story. Very few things in this life can bring you more pride. Dave Fox, GMC

Jeez Frank, W-2? You da man! Congrats!
Here's the only photo I have of Donnie in uniform that is recent. He was at another Marine's wedding here in NH.
I hope you and the family are doing well. Glad to hear you're moving right on up...W-2.
