Perhaps I'm a bit more attuned to this with having just witnessed my son perform his final swearing in to become a sailor in the United States Navy and watching him leave on the bus for the airport as he headed off to boot camp. I'm proud of him and his decision to serve in our military. He follows a long line of men who have served in my family and my husband's family: my husband, his father and grandfather, and both of his brothers, my Dad and my brother. They've represented multiple branches between them - Navy, Army, and Air Force.
Thank you to all who have served and are serving in the military. Thank you for those who serve each day as fire fighters, policemen, and other professions that every day are heroes.

May God bless and protect your son and he serves our nation. I have the utmost respect for our military men and women. Too often we don't appreciate them until we need them. Thanks for sharing!
Amen! Lovely post.
Amen to that!
I come from a long line of military history, all the way back to the Revolutionary War. I was the first girl though! Good for your son. Keep the patriotism running strong.
Please thank your son for me, too!
