Our new Marine.

[swilly78]

Well, since ive bored the heck out of family and friends here at home, I figured Id bore my friends on BR as well. My ol' lady and me just brought our new Marine home from bootcamp, where he was meritoriously promoted to Pfc from private for doing an outstanding job. He was third in his Company (555 guys) in his pt scores. We are extremely proud of him. Here is his picture upon arriving home on sunday. Pfc Michael F. Giuliano.

EEERRRRRRRR!!! Devil Dog! Please tell him I said congratulations and thank you for serving...especially in the USMC. Semper Fi! If you don't mind me asking what is his job going to be?

[-HAWK-]

Congratulations, I know you are probably the proudest father on the planet. Your probably grinning from ear to ear every time you look at that picture.

[swilly78]

I am extremely proud, but a step father, not acctually dad.  That being said, I have none of my own, and will have none of my own, so I view him and his sister as mine anyway.  He is to be an infantryman, I bellieve the code is 0311.  He heads to Pendleton to start SOI(school of infantry) on 26 oct.

[fathom]

congratulations, sir.

you've both done well.

Congrats, tell the young man Godspeed from Uncle Leo and stay safe.

If I was an enemy of the United States, I'd be shaking in my boots after seeing that picture.  He looks like he could tear some tail up.  Congratulations!

Ok, one more pic.  The other Marine in this picture is my younger brother, Capt. Mike Walls.  He was the first Marine Officer that Pfc Giuliano saluted after graduation.  We were really pleased he could make it out to the graduation.  Cindy, my ol'lady, was crying her eyes out when Capt Walls greeted Pfc Giuliano and welcomed him to "the club".  It was a pretty priceless moment.

Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!

Please relay to him that there are many of us AMERICANS who truly appreciate the young men and women of our armed forces.  They are the protectors of the freedoms most take for granted.  I salute you and your marine....

Any member of the armed forces never pays for a meal or beer in my bar, it is the least I can do.  I always make it a point to shake hands and thank them as well
