star4772 Posted June 16, 2011 Share #1 Posted June 16, 2011 but It will be a proud day when I get to where I am going. I am going to Omaha Ne to see my son retire from the U.S. Air Force as a Master Sergeant on Friday 6-17-2011. There will be a retirement ceremony and a reception to follow. After 20 years of service and several trips back and forth to war he is finally done and safe. All the years he has been in the service I really didn't know what his career was all about, only thing he could say was it was all top secret and will tell me when he is done. I hope to find out. What's good is he will retire on Friday walk out and return on Monday 6-20-2011 with the same job at 100K a year plus his retirement. Needless to say I am proud of my son. I will post some pictures when I return on Sunday or Monday. Any members who have family in the service God bless them and may they return home safe and sound.

mini-muffin Posted June 16, 2011 Share #2 Posted June 16, 2011 Well glad to hear he's getting to retire and he'll be home safe now. Enjoy his retirement party. Gee maybe he can give you a little allowance so you can just ride around. Oh tell him thanks, most folks don't know what the military go through or their families.

Star4772 Glad to here he is safe, and please thank him for me. I was wanting to hear you say that he was going to enjoy his retirement and ride with you. Sometimes life makes that hard to do, so I understand. Hope you have a safe trip. Fuzzy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carbon_One Posted June 16, 2011 Share #20 Posted June 16, 2011 Have a safe trip Joe. Thanks to your sons service as well. Without people like him in our services this country wouldn't be what it is. Hope he enjoys his semi-retirement too. At least now it appears he'll be earning a nice income and hopefully safer doing it. See ya when you get home.
