Mad props to Tony for the hard work and also to the proud papa for setting the example.

Fordman4ever · 05-23-2011, 08:09 PM

Congrats. I was also in NJROTC and it taught me a great deal about leadership and respect. It was also one of the reasons I joined the Armed Forces. Its always great to see the future leaders of our military, communities, etc. get recognized.

Drez · 05-23-2011, 08:21 PM

Congrats man!! Very proud moment for you and your son!!

DPD6030 · 05-24-2011, 05:42 AM

That's a ton of cigars Vin! Congrats to Tony and may those zeros bring him a great career!

jwintosh · 05-24-2011, 06:10 AM

"Awesome!!" <awesome>

HollywoodQue · 05-24-2011, 06:29 AM

That is some of the best news I have heard in a long time and after my own Navy Jr. ROTC days. That's the same route I took over 20 years ago, 3 yrs in high school Navy ROTC, 1 year in the BOOST Naval Program, a 4 yrs program from the Navy, then 4 yrs active duty - 4 yrs reserve.

Congrats...Big Time.

Salvelinus · 05-24-2011, 06:50 AM

Congrats Vin! Scary how many zeroes are at the end of that check. Education doesn't come cheap these days.

BigAsh · 05-24-2011, 12:10 PM

Now that don't suck!!....Vin, congrats to you and Tony!!...Job well done!

massphatness · 08-14-2011, 12:45 PM

And so it begins. Just back from attending my son's Navy ROTC Indoc ceremony. Kinda' moving to listen to him take the oath and "swear ... to defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic"
