OT - Please say a little prayer for my Army son to do well
My youngest, Steven, is in basic training. This week he begins his weapons training. I'd like to ask for your prayers for him to do well. He has grown to be an outstanding marksman and hunter and this means a lot to him. All his life he has looked forward to being a soldier. I have done my best to teach him, now it all comes down to this week.
They sure grow up fast....
Thank you,
Gary

Gary,
Don't worry about your son. You did your job well in training him, he'll do well in basic.

Prayers up. Been there and done that. If you attend his graduation, you will feel very old indeed. Both times my constant thought was, "Did I ever look that young", and "Now I know how my dad felt". Seems like you boy is on a good track. Best of luck to him.

He should do just fine as long as he listens to his range coaches. Wish him the best of luck

Prayers sent. I am sure he will excel in basic. Sounds like he had a good teacher.
Like was said, I wonder if I ever looked that young...it's been over 39 years since I went to basic in Fort Knox, Ky. My first permanent duty station was Mt. Gleason, just south of Palmdale, off Angeles Crest hwy. Got there Sept '72, and stayed in Palmdale till June of 2009.

Thanks for the prayers for my son. His Battalion just posted this on their site...
A great day on the range as qualification has begun, several first time qualifiers, several outstanding qualification scores. Be very proud of your Soldiers they are excelling at each challenging step of becoming a Soldier.
