A young Lad

The young lad joined
the army reserves, an
education in mind. He
wanted to be a Lawyer.
Things going well until
Desert Storm!
He was called to duty
to his surprise. Off to
boot camp, his wedding
put on hold. Destination
Kuwait. His normal life
became the unknown.
He married without the
big wedding that was
the originally planned.
He was gone for six
months, catching a
satellite to call his wife
when he was fortunate.
His life was forever
changed. Mentally
UN prepared for the
war the brought things
he would never imagine
leaving scars day after day.
When he came home, it
was bitter sweet. For such
a young lad going back to
the norm was not an easy
task. He had a wife, he had to
carry on as if the six months
was a job well done.
Not that easy as he found out.
I am proud of this man, he still
has the scars, that come and go
in his mind.
Now with three children a good
job, but still the scars show at
times. This wonderful man is
my Son in law,,,,,
