That's a great story.When I was fresh out of the Army and a poor bum going to college with very little money, I started dating a really nice girl. It was hard enough to impress her being so broke, but I did finally put together enough money for a used car. I even started to take her to church in this old beater. One Sunday while attending the service, some one came rushing in a and YELLED, there is a Car on fire. Everyone ran outside and watched my Cheap Little Renault look like a Bonfire.Man, talk about embarrison and down right sad. Had to catch a ride home with her parents.
The Next day, the church held a raffle. I won! A New Bike!!! Today this day, I think they rigged it just for me.
PS My son graduated from Army Medic school this am. God Bless America and this great Country!
Congrats to your son.
My nephew joined the USC for two tours, then did one with the army. Two trips to the sandbox, one was nasty. Now he's married and living and working on a big cattle ranch near anaconda, mt. Riding horses,roping cows, hunting elk, moose,deer,antelope....hes really happy now.
His buddy that enlisted with him in the usmc won not one...but two guns in this very same raffle!
