Jr just re-upped

Doc45 Jr (how I refer to my older son) just signed on for 6 more years in the Army National Guard. He's an E6 Flight Medic, 12 years in (10 as a Combat Medic) 3 deployments under his belt. We had a long talk last night after he told me. He and his wife had a long hard heart to heart before he decided on Saturday.

He felt like he wasn't done, still has more to give. This will take him to 18 total which should put him on track to have a 20 yr. retirement. He's also a Flight Medic in the non-mil world and loves it.

I'm damn proud of all he's accomplished, a tad apprehensive for what lies ahead (they have the most wonderful 2 yr old little boy and hope for more kids).

My younger son (Doc45 III) couldn't go for health reasons and is quite the great son in his own right.

I'm a lucky man to have two wonderful sons. Just had to share.

Thumbs up

Damn cool on both counts - seems they have a good dad.

Awesome. You should be proud. [Awesom]

Congrats!

Good job on raising some good men!

Congrats and thank him from us.

Very cool!!

Thats awesome. Please tell him thanks for his service for me [Beer]

Nice job on raising two great kids.

Congrats on such fine young men! You and your wife did one hell of a job. Thank him for his service and his dedication.
