I probably won't get much hunting in this weekend it's going to be a rough one The reason I have not been able to get into the detecting this week is my youngest son will be joining his brother serving in the Army. My oldest son is 21 and on his second year in the Army he is stationed at Fort Carson Colorado. My youngest son is 19 and has 4 years of ROTC under his belt and will be leaving on Monday for basic training at Fort Benning Georgia he will graduate basic in November. My boys are my life and we have always been close it is going to be tough not to have both of them around usually detecting helps not think of stuff but it has been hard not think of them not being here Here's my boys and I am so proud of the way they have grown up to the young men they are neither one has ever been in trouble with the law or drugs or the like

I have true admiration for you and your Sons. That said I am scared to death. My youngest and only Boy is talking about joining the Marines. Under Bush or Reagan, I might could accept that. Under the current administration I just can not bear the thought of him possibly getting killed serving a President that I am convinced just does not respect our Troops and is not intelligent enough to make good decisions.
