Sad But Proud

[snakecharmer3638]

Well I'm trying to keep my spirits up, and tell my self everything will be okay. But it's getting harder everyday. You see in six days my nineteen year old boy is leaving for the army. I know you can't protect them forever and you have to let them go, but it still hurts.

Now I know not everybody on this forum is religious. But to those of you who are, could you please offer up a prayer for him. And for those that aren't maybe take time to think about him, and hope he stays safe.

His name is:
"Anthony Marcus Sandoval"

Thank You!

I will send out lots of prayers to him! I salute you Anthony Marcus Sandoval! What a brave and courageous thing for him to do!

-Smiles.- My prayers will go out to both your family and your son. I am very honored that he would take up arms to protect us. I have a very dear friend who's a Sargent in the Army Reserves who's been stationed in Iraq. I know how it must feel.

Anthony will be in my heart. Thank you for sharing this.
Edit: His name is John Deere.

I know how you feel. I have 2 nephews both in the Army and both are currently in Iraq. Even though they are not my sons it was still hard to see them go.

Anthony will be in my prayers with Dustin & Robert and the rest of our troops over there.

You and your son will be in my thoughts. He is doing a very brave and honorable thing.
