My grandson joined the military...he'll go in shortly after he graduates high school. If he doesn't qualify for the position he really wants...he'll be going for combat medic. So that would mean front lines should he be called to it. Our daughter is freaking out. I'm proud of him...but at the same time...terrified for him. I know that God has him...and I know he has to live his own journey. I don't want him to go in with his mom freaking out on him for that choice. This IS so him though. He is a tough young dude...but has a heart to help people. As hard as it is to think about...I can totally see him choosing this. He wants to be a fireman/EMT when he gets out. So it totally fits him. Prayers appreciated to help his mom deal with his choice and support him and just love on him the rest of his time before he goes in. Blessings to all!

He's at that age....where he's on the cusp of graduation and "freedom"....he's already 18...and making suggestions to him are hard. He's very head strong. So...we can offer up suggestions...but when he's made up his mind....umm...yah. Being a grand parent is HARD!
