My Nephews Fourth of July (a few photos)

This first pic is of my nephew.

This next pic has them training and getting the flag ready.

The flag.

A few planes.

I am very proud of my nephew.

He is on the Eisenhower. He didn't say where they were this time, but last time they were off the coast of Kuwait. I never ask for details because he has told me about the security screening he has to go through to send an e-mail. I'm surprised they let him send pics this time. Starting to babble now, I better go.

Thank you everyone. Does anyone mind if I copy and paste their comments into an e-mail to him? I'm sure they will brighten his and his shipmates day.

That is so cool

Too many people are clueless as to what these men and woman go through while we set back home drinking coke and eating moonpies.

Please tell him thank you and what he is doing does not go unappreciated

Nope, don't mind at all. Those ice cream swabbies with the Dixie Cups on their heads need all the uplifting and encouragement they can get.

He gets a salute from a retired old soldier out here in the desert. Proud of him as I am all our military people. The only organization in the federal government that is earning their pay.
