There have been many others here that also had very kind and encouraging words that I want to THANK also.....even though I couldn't figure out how to multi-reply to.....

 

THANK YOU EVERYONE......we are very proud parents.....

 

I have mentioned this before......but if anyone ever has the chance to visit the Dayton, Ohio area......MAKE SURE you stop and see the U.S.A. Air Force National Museum in Beavercreek, Ohio......EVERY plane that has ever flown under the the US colors (Flag) is INSIDE this HUGE museum....even the continental ballistic missiles standing UPRIGHT.......including the famous PEACE KEEPER aimed at the old Soviet Union....and the best part it's ALL FREE...... :clapping: ...including parking....we have been there 3 times and haven't had time to see it all......if you do plan a trip let me know and I'll get you info so you can see and BOARD retired Air Force One planes...including the famous one that President Kennedy's body flew back in after his assignation in Dallas, TX.....here's more info on Wright Patterson Air Force Museum.....BTW it's the second largest Air Force Base there is.

BTW........my favorite part is a whole area honoring Bob Hope for everything he has done for our military........and the area also set aside for the Doolittle Raid......this in itself is AMAZING feat for those who have never heard of these volunteer pilots.....

Here is a tribute to them.......

God Bless them Bob.Being broght up in a military household, i have always been interested in Military History. the storey of Dollitles Raiders is one of the strories that intrigued me most. It was an important turning point in WW2. It showed the Japanese, that the the Americains could reach out and get them where it counted, The homeland.

There's nothing in the world that makes you feel as good as watching your kids succeed.

I'm right there with you Bob; we're off to Ottawa this weekend for my daughter's law school graduation ceremony.

Hey would your son be interested in a blind date with a 26 year old lawyer; just saying. :whistling:

 

Dan.

 

Hey Dan, Ottawa is a great law school. I graduated from Osgoode myself this year.

Wonderful BB, congratulations to the whole family on this tremendous accomplishment. The Air Force is a first class act. They saved my daughter's life. They went above and beyond throughout her ordeal. All you ever read is bad press regarding veteran treatment and recovery, some is likley true, most is likely fiction, and nearly all is from earlier conflicts. Our experience was and continues to be the best treatment available from the best doctors with the best equipment. Your family are all Great Americans.
