    I'd be a little afraid of the "other activities" Russ. Steve might have you performing dance, in a tutu, for charity....which btw, I might fork over some good coin to view that. :)

    Somehow, I think you meant, "Salud!" (glass raised high!).


    Congrats to Skyler! And Grandpa, too! :)

    I have a niece who, combined with excellent grades, turned her involvement in JROTC into a ROTC scholarship for college--full ride to UNC Chapel Hill. No school loans and most importantly she'll gain more discipline and focus than most.

    It's obvious your grandson has some discipline and focus now. Good job instilling that in him and congratulations to all.

    Do your very best to make sure if he decides on choosing to join my beloved Corps that he goes through college first and earns is 2nd Lieutenant “butter-bars” first. There are a lot more opportunities for him that way. If I were to do it all over again, I would have been an officer, and maybe even a gentleman. B)

    Congrats !!

    To see your son enlist and then a grandson start the journey has to be every military mans' life's' desire. At least 2 big ones of many maybe..

    Having a Daughter join has to be a proud act to cherish also !
    Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

    Nice, ROTC looks good on a resume and helps with college entry. It is one of the stand out's I notice when going through resume's. I kid that wants to be above the rest is who I want working for me.
    When I was a kid my parents told me to turn it down. Now I'm an adult and my kids tell me to turn it down.
