Home on leave

Post by buckeye » November 3rd, 2005, 8:06 am

Have'nt been on for a while, thought I would share some photos of my son. He has been home on leave for a month from the Marine Corp. doing what he loves most. He also put me up in one of his favorite stands long enough to kill a doe.
Thank you my son I am proud of you!

Great story and pic's. Image I'm sure you're proud of that boy. Please extend a thank's to him for his service from me. It's nice knowin' we got young men like him serving so we can sleep safe at night.
McLintock, great party, but no whiskey. We go home.

Give that soldier a handshake and a big thank you from me. IMO serving his country is one of the most noble things a young man can do in his life. This country could use more young men like him.

Tell him congrats on the critters too.

The kid will appreciate all of the kind words, he still checks this site out for good advice. In addition to the game he harvested while back home he freshened up a lot of old "scrapes" along the way. Thanks again.
Good Luck,
