I wonder if they get that? No matter how old!!!

In a few more years, yes they will get it :-)

We just went through almost the same thing when our oldest joined the Army. He is still in training (out of basic though), and sometimes he is in the field for 1 - 4 weeks at a time.
Our middle son, works 12 - 14 hours shifts, then eats and heads to bed after calling his wife and daughters. He is stationed Iraq, so we do not get to talk to him often. :cry:

congratulations! yes you are right to be proud... He did well in his field and track competitions and you will continue to be proud of him as he develops into the your young man you taught him to be.
