I didn'...My son (22) talked about the Air Force. I didn't discourage him but I did some research. Since he has a GED and has a drug history he was immediately not eligible. I think the drug history is true with all branches of the armed forces. My son is actively using so of course he did not follow up with any of it anyway. Peace to you and your son.Terrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07043952479034521550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5772632838210699563.post-53525217253079183552011-08-22T20:19:32.688-05:002011-08-22T20:19:32.688-05:00Congrats on 2 years... interesting changes occur i...Congrats on 2 years... interesting changes occur in those years..enjoy the peaceaddiction journalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02567615211870124484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5772632838210699563.post-7700491332680922662011-08-22T19:22:15.181-05:002011-08-22T19:22:15.181-05:00Barbara, he's never been arrested. Don't ...Barbara, he's never been arrested. Don't know if the drug rehab will count against him. <br /><br />Yes, I did find out that the gun is a 9mm, don't know how expensive ammo is. I suppose that he will figure out pretty quick it costs money :).<br /><br />Funds are already dwindling... <br /><br />All that aside, I'm so proud of him for reaching the two year mark. He has worked so hard for it.Mommahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16608446475815606649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5772632838210699563.post-54913820836344509192011-08-22T17:15:04.955-05:002011-08-22T17:15:04.955-05:00Two Years sounds like a great milestone to me!!!! ...Two Years sounds like a great milestone to me!!!! Does he meet all the qualifications to join the Marines? if not, that will take care of that. My son wanted to join but you can't if you've been in a mental hospital or have a felony - he's got both strikes against him.<br /><br />Congrats to him for being a success story.<br /><br />Shooting can get expensive unless your shooting something small (.22) or relatively small (9mm). Maybe his passion for target shooting will diminish as his funds start to take a hit. Then again, everything is more expensive out here, maybe its not that bad....Bar L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11100008292699584336noreply@blogger.com
