The hazards of raising boys who are boys. Lots of empathy for your “worries”! Your boy is happiest having a job that’s active and requires fit bodies and minds. I wonder what’s his specialty?

I’m not sure what his specialty is as a Sargent. I know he was trained to supervise helicopter maintenance and has taught hand to hand fighting. We don’t discuss this much. His son has gone straight into service from High School, and studied 11 months at Monterrey. They both were strong on physical activity and restless sitting in HS classes, as was their father, also a war vet. My other son’s children are both into physical activity, and one is fearless to a dangerous degree. I have also done a few gutsy things in my life, but more of a cerebral type, not so much physical.
