Fox Co. Platoon 2131 Graduation!
I can't believe that in 17 days I get to see my son and I will be able to call him a Marine! This journey has been so hard, all you other parents will agree. I had days of crying because I missed him so much.

Very Lucky to have a son like JoeV.
Yesterday we dropped Joe at the Marine Recruiters office. Today 8/22/11 he should be arriving @ Parris Island S.C. We miss him so much but we know this is where he wanted his journey to begin.

My son left today for Parris Island. I've watched him grow from a baby to this amazing young man who I know will do amazing things. He has carried this passion with him for so long and today begins his dream, his journey.

Goodbye Seems to be the Hardest Word
I am so proud of my son for this journey he is about to enter and wouldn't dare let him see how upset I was as he hopped excitedly into his recruiters car but I am feeling so lost and incomplete without him.

Proud mother of a future MARINE.
Hello my daughter too left on Dec. 17th. As a mother of a only child, I have had mixed feelings since she left. So I understand your sadness, I too am sad and feel very lonely without her. As parents it's hard to let them go.
