My nephew began "Hell Week" at BUDS today. Good luck, Jake, you think you want it - go get it.

I've been busy at home...but Thursday (30 May) I was issued a blue ID card...Friday, my last day on Active duty...was spent on my bass boat fishing.
I am now the most dangerous thing labeled by the media...a former Green Beret.

Welcome to retirement 1st! 
Yes, you just went from Freeing the Oppressed to being a domestic terrorist all in one day! -- labeled by DHS!

Awesome! My last grandfather died when I was 30. I had a Great Grandfather who died when I was 19 and one who was one month shy of 100 when I was 11. We didn't have texting back then, though. 
It's really very special that you've had so many years with him! And many more, I hope.
