Congrats to your son. I served in the US Navy from 1991-1996 before switching over to the US Army in 1997. He will enjoy the Navy and being able to see the world. I am now retired but I can proudly say that during my military career I have been all the way around the world. I hope your son enjoys his time in the Navy and is always safe.

The next time you see him, tell him there's an old preacher boy down in Tennnessee that appreciates him very much. I know I'll probably never get the chance, so please tell him for me.

I hope he has a great time while serving.

Congratulations to you and him both! I have a son in the Air Force and that is a proud day when you see them graduate boot camp. Glad you could make the trip to see it.

Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers for my son. I talked to him today and he is now talking about going to the academy. The best advice i could give was for him to take it day by day and to start that day with a smile and end it with a prayer.
