| Flymom- I know how you feel and believe me it is the small minded person who misses out the most. I had one D leave last year for USAFA and another going this year. It has amazed me how little people know of THEIR MILITARY. And how most don't care to know. I had a hard time at first dealing with the statement but now I just don't even bother to answer some of the crazy questions. Just remember we are a very specially and elite group. Be proud of your D and know that you are NEVER alone. Good Luck to her. She will be GREAT!!!! On another note, I read in my town paper today, how Saturday was ARMED FORCES DAY. The person commented on how little respect their is for are services especially with us having many troops on in IRAQ and Afghanistan. I couldn't agree with them more. Let's all remember our fallen service men and womren on monday!!!!!! Let's Fly our colors proudly!!! |
