My little boy was born eleven days ago. My wife is somewhat emotional right now as most of you have experienced. She saw this ad and was holding our little boy in her arms. When the tears started flying, she said she was thinking of our baby going off to the Army. Now, she is not from a military family. We met and married after I got out of the Army. I had to explain to her that some people actually consider it an honor to join the military. It bothers me that she, along with the rest of your average civilian are eating this ad up. I regret I never got to show her what it means to serve. The bond between families and friends in your unit is something I miss to this day. I hate moveon.org. Now, If I could get her to let me check out the 19th group......hmmm
