Bump and thanks for the ping.
MOS: Marine wife, SAHM of 2
Married to a Naval Academy grad, U. S. Marine, Naval Aviator.
We exited active duty in 1998 and entered the USMC Reserves.
Dh was called to active duty 12 months ago where he serves today.
My Great Gpa served during the Civil War (not saying which side!), my Gpa served in the Spanish American war and WWI (sniper), all my great uncles on my mom's side served during WWII, Dad served during Korea (MP), husband (firefighter), brother (mapping service) and brother-in-law (medical) served during Desert Storm, and an uncle who was a fighter pilot in WWII. I think that is everyone.
I am eternally grateful to all of them, as well as to all of you. Forget about Superman. You guys are true heroes.
BTTT!!!!!!!
