Stay as safe as you can.</description>

		<description>Great job Dave, good to hear morale is up, often we ask a lot out of are young Marines. My son, Corporal Williams from Florida said he had a chance to chat with you the other day, said you were a pretty cool dude. Remember, when in doubt, go all in.</description>

		<description>I am a retired Navy Senior Chief now employed withthe Corps of Engineers.  I completed a tour in Afghanistan in Janaury of 2008 where I was one of the Corps of engineers assigned to Khost Afghan national army base about one hour away from FOB Salerno.  I was responsible for the O&amp;M of Khost ANA, review some road construction and police and border patrol stations.  My son is now with the 3/8 Marines, I company.  Put a shout out to Bubba Welch.  Ask him about his Black lab butch.  He also has a street rod hearse and a small arsenal at home
Very few dads and sons have served in the same war theater in the same calendar year.  Thanks for the stories and you will be added to the prayers. USMC3/8 our prayer for you is Isaiah 40:31
