thanks man, we are going to do all we can to get him accepted while working with the admin office.

i was just thinking the other day about how most dad's want their kids to follow in their footsteps and surpass what they did in their lives. i can honestly say that i am glad that he choose a completely different path than i did. i dont think he has the attitude or desire to do what i did for my career not to mention no money in it. my entire family who were a part of the military discouraged me from joining up but i had it in my head from when i was young enough to remember that i wanted to serve and be better than everyone else in my family in their careers. i did it and looking back i wouldnt trade any of my experiences at all but it def wasnt easy on my wife and kids nor the rest of the family. so i guess a rewarding career that pays well and is full filling is the best choice. not that mine wasnt but it def came with lots of pain and sacrifice along the way and i am glad he is going a different route
