We have a Sargent in our house
I am happy to announce that FINALLY the Marines have given our son Joe his Sargent stripes. He passed his tests well over a year ago but for what ever reasons(well one was too many Sargents in his plattoon ) didn't give them to him until yesterday. The family is very happy for him and Joe said there are many more stripes to come. He also said he likes his 2 pay increases, one for his stripes and the other because of his yrs in.
I guess I'll have to address him as Sgt Weimer from now on,lol. Just one more thing to be proud of when I talk about our son ......joeLast edited by TooMany2count; 10-10-2009 at 07:32 AM.

My heartiest congratulations. Please convey this veterans sincerest gratitude and appreciation to your son for his service to this nation and his commitment to bring freedom to those in this world not fortunate enough to have been born Americans.
Godspeed, Sgt Weimer.

Joe,
Agree thenightbird said it well. I was given a quote years back that I feel is probably applicable in your situation - "Lucky parents who have good children seem to always have lucky children who have good parents."Roger
Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

Congratulations and wishing him many more to come. I'm proud to know him through you Joe. Be sure to spell it Sergeant if you give him a card!
