Above All
My son voluntarily enlisted in the Air Force yesterday. He heads off for Basic Training on October 28th.
To be honest, that would not have been my first choice for him. At a minimum, I would have preferred that he finish college first. But in the end, it is his choice to make. All that I can and did do as a parent is ensure that he had plenty of choices available to him.
My maternal grandfather, my wife’s father and his three brothers all served in various armed forces.
I’m not yet sure of the details, but apparently his assignment will involve the maintenance and service of on-board radar equipment.
