[QUOTE="tRidiot, post: 2991672, member: 9374"] Definitely a conscious decision on our part to try to instill in him the best values and appreciation for those who have gone before. I come from a military family on both sides, but didn't serve myself. He hasn't had much exposure, as both grandfathers and my father died many years ago. He is a good kid, and he is about as respectful and appreciative as 11 year-olds get. Just hoping to instill even more respect and honor for our armed forces as the years go by. Honestly, it will be tough on me to make the ceremony, after working all night and driving home, and needing to get back up and go back to work, so it is going to end up cutting my sleep a bit short, but it will be worth it, I think. To see and honor the sacrifices of others myself, as well as setting an example for my boy. [/QUOTE]
