Just be glad he's not going over there with the Army.. lol. No disrespect to our soldiers, of course.
And yeah, the Marine Corps is still about God, Country, Corps. We had to pray every night before we hit the rack at OCS. Church every week..

Sue... There's been some good advice in this thread, but the most important is this...keep the letters coming. Sam will live for those letters. I deployed with Lockheed to Iraq the first time around, pre 9/11 as a civilian aircraft mechanic. We were supporting 1st Cav aircraft over there. I was there for about 8 months, and LIVED for letters from the wife. Granted I was not military then, but bullets don't discriminate. Last but not least, be proud of your Marine!
