fazer1sniper Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 Well here I go again. My oldest, an E4 promotible, in an SF group in Intell deploys again tomorrow. Still strange to see a female soldier with a Special Forces Combat Patch. Even more so when its your kid. She's supposed to make Sergeant 1 March. Then enter the Problem Child.... My 18 yo duaghter. Been in troubles from the time she was 14. Fought with Mom and Dad for years. Moved out with a boy friend in the middle of the nite. Couple months pass. Moved back. Said her "sorries" after a trip to visit her big sister at FT Bragg. And tells us she inlisted for 6 years active duty Army....????? She left a week ago and in reception battalion as I type. Gonna be a drone opperator and now has SF "contacts" because she met Group Command Sergent Major at Bragg and may be "diverted" to Airborne then to Group with big sis if she makes it threw training. She called me and said "Dad! Are you gonna call your buddy at SORB (Special Operations Recruiting Battalion) for me like you did for Nicole?"..... (sigh) ........... And to add to the creepy she said "I love you" first time since she was 12. First one I almost expected. My most recent "Private" is still catching me off guard.Oh well, Like I said, here I go again.Go ArmyAirborne 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fazer1sniper Posted February 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 My nerves are only overcome by my pride in my daughters.

Her on this last Christmass morning... Maybe this is all my fault?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chevysoldier Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 Props to ya and tell your daughters we are proud of them. I have a 5 year old little girl and she says she wants to be a cop and a soldier like daddy. I'm really torn on those ideas, not sure how I'd feel but I'd support her either way. Good luck to you and your family. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fazer1sniper Posted February 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 As 4th generation Army I should have expected my kids to do this. Who would have guessed Gen 5 were gonna be all female type GI? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
