Jarhead, I almost forgot, yesterday was veterans day and I wanted to say thanks.
We saw the parade before church yesterday, and my boys kept asking are those the Marines? I kept saying no, not yet.
When they did come by I was furious. They were all over the place, out of step, bouncing, no resemblance to close order drill at all.
Then I realized that they were JROTC, not the local reserve unit.
Whew, hahaha I'm turning into a grouchy old man. (that's not how it was in the OLD Corps....) I hope someone is around with a 2x4 if I ever say that.
Thanks again.
