This young man has successfully completed "boot camp" and is now a soldier in the US Army, Infantry Division. He has volunteered to serve and defend our country's freedom. Only 3% of the population in America serves in our military. Proudly, my son is one of them (not pictured, but graduating). Dedication, service, sacrifice, courage - these are the signs of a true patriot. They are found in the Armed Forces. Nothing is more patriotic than to be willing to sacrifice your life to protect strangers, your family, your country, or your battle buddy. HOOAH!!!
