What a blessing to read this thread AAAAA. I know the Marines will test his endurance, but from what I have read he is up to the challenge. And the last thing about including a freshmen into his group because she was lonely and felt left out shows the compassion and caring your son has. I know that you are very proud of him. I will pray for you for strength during the time he is on duty, and for him for wisdom and knowledge of each thing he encounters, so that he can make the right choice for it all.

Blessings to you and your family.
