Only been to my son's friends one ... was very close to us, and felt very proud of him. Was an enjoyable day and you are treated well ... decent meal in the canteen after too.
What a difference the training had made to him, not only physically, but his all outlook on life. He grew up in that short time
Even though he has served in Northern Ireland, Iraq and Bosnia since .. he is still a sound level-headed 25 year old.
