First may I say THANK YOU to all who have served and are now serving to protect us.

I would like to introduce myself and family. I am the mother of 5 boys, or Men. (One Granddaughter) My #3 son started RIP on Thursday May 7th. Graduating on June 5th.

I am so proud of him and what he is doing. One of the best days of my life was watching him receive his Blue Cord. He has graduated Airborne. (was not able to be there) He is loving what he is doing and can't wait to be a member of the 75th. My husband and I are planning to be there for his RIP Graduation.

I have younger son that is planning on following his brothers footsteps. Also, wanting to be an Airborne Ranger!

Am mainly interested in the Parents Section.

Thank you for welcoming me here. Fill right at home with all the testosterone!
Hope I do things right. Would not want to offend anyone here. We are new to the Army life. So far, it has been a great experience.

Welcome stargazer.

When your son graduates RIP you will be eligible for the parents forum.

In the meantime one of our truly helpful ladies of this site will be around shortly.

Five sons... That's a heap of groceries on a regular basis. Thank you for raising a warrior - or two!
