and the girl. I have heard Korea is quite nice, had a Korean roommate in college and have known several people who served there. At least the one's who served after hostilities ceased thought it was nice, once you got away from the DMZ.

Ahhh...Ft Benning. I remember it well. My best wishes to the twins. If he is ready to go back to college in the future, there are good schools that are not the PC crap.

good school then. Sounds like he has a good head on his shoulders, obviously from a proper upbringing. Best wishes to you and yours. Tell him B Camp is supposed to be hard, but they have a pretty good survival rate. DD214 Alumni.

Things have gotten worse. My first experience with the modern decline of doing whats right was 23 years ago. I run a retail route in the delivery field, I would go into over 200 stores a week and knew a lot of people from the stores I served. When I got engaged and the younger store people said your getting married? The questions all went the same way were you married before? NO. Was she ? No. How many kids do you have? NONE . How many does she have? None. What's wrong with you ? why are you getting married? I was floored by how many people ask these samequestions and were mortified by the answers. Out of 200 stops I would say 160 of them fell into this category. I couldn't believe what was the norm then. I am sorry that your son had to quit college but I can understand it, I couldn't function in that environment much less accell.

.y youngest son Mark did boot camp at Fort Benning and yes he is in for a treat. God bless you folks Byron and thank you for the update.

Every blessing to all of you.

I sure can't argue against leaving an institution where on is expected to PAY to be abused.

There are real institutions of higher learning. He has chosen one ;)

Congrats on raising 4 fine children.
It is ashamed what the professional educators are teaching our children now.

he'll have learned misery is simple, and he cannot be broke by misery. And he'll be in the best shape of his life, unless he goes to jump school, and etc, until he likes it when it's miserable. My best regards, and prayers, and it seems a new way to drive whiteness out of power structures, run them off from college.

It's unfortunate your son had to have that experience, but it will help shape his outlook in the future.
Our thanks for the service your family has given this nation

children upon graduation from AIT. I will be proud to provide it.

There's other options than brainwas...err, I mean 'college'. Thanks to your family for their service,

See our young ones head out into the world and harms way is both a scary thing and a sense of accomplishment as a parent thing. It doesn't make it any easier when they are off doing their jobs and sleeping with an ear for the phone can be wearing but knowing that yo had a hand in raising such a person makes a parent feel like you did something right in spite of ourselves.

Tell all your duty bound children thanks for doing the jobs they do for all the rest of us.

Kind of shocked. K-State wasn't like that in the mid to late '80s. Then again, that's been awhile. My oldest is a high school senior. He decided to go to fire school at Hutchinson Ju. Co. He wants to come home and farm and Emporia Fire has a program where they will pay for quite a bit of his education provided he becomes paramedic certified. Apparently they are the only ones in the State to do it. Hope for the best for your kids as always.

Thank you for the grit.
