<p>Similar situation to Christcorp’s (but I’m not yet retired).</p>
<p>Son born on an Air Base in England, and has lived in 9 different homes throughout his 18 years, from Europe to Alaska to throughout the continental US. He grew up around people in the AF flying community, and has wanted to join them for a while. Not just for the flying aspect, but more because he has seen first hand the dedicated professionals, both men and women, who currently serve our country and he would be honored to be like them. And despite the number of times he has had to celebrate a special occasion or significant event without his father being there, he has always seen how happy we are as a family and how much we all love what we are a part of. He wants that for his own family as well.</p>
<p>He wants to be a part of that team! And I couldn’t be prouder… (well, maybe if he went to MIT, dropped out during his sophomore year to create his own internet-based business that made him an instant billionaire the moment his IPO hit the streets, then he sets up his old man with his own personal golf course, I might re-evaluate the situation 
)</p>
