August 13, 2007. One day before our 25th Wedding Anniversary our son
leaves for Paris Island. He is slotted for Military Police training
after completing basic training and *earning* his right to officially call
himself a Marine. He originally planned delayed entry in mid September
but the MP opportunity came up if he went in earlier.
Even before his decision to join the Marines he has been concentrating on
his physical condition, recently completing a community event 5 mile race
and finishing in 2nd place.
He will continue with the physical preparation but will now start to
mentally focus on the fact that he will be leaving for Paris Island in 6
weeks.
We are very proud of him and his decision to join the Marine Corps.
Make that Parris Island. Sorry to disrespect the name.
