@Mikem these types of inter family rivalries can challenge the soul. On the one had she is your daughter. The little girl you emotionaly need to care for during your life. On the other hand she is a West Pointer. Oh the humanity of it all.

Oh that is too funny. She is a great girl. Bronze star in Afghanistan doing stuff she can't talk about.

Next time you get to talk, give her best wishes. She will be in my prayers. May she do her duty and at the same time be safe and return to her family when the job is done.

I found this message many years ago, and I share it during the season.

Preach it, brother. My sister and her husband, my brother and his wife, my nephew ... all Navy officers. Two of them are Annapolis grads, one of them a SEAL.

Then there is me ... the lone Army grunt, who dropped out of school and enlisted on his 17th birthday.

I'm seriously outnumbered here!!

And you tell her, from this old jar-head enlisted man, to pay heed to her senior enlisted men/women. They didn't get there by serving coffee all day.

That be NAVY coffee, John. It can lubricate the toughest engine anytime.
