Last time I mentioned my "Shoe Polish" Son, was HERE.
He went many places and took many photos of his time on The Mercy. A last minute earthquake in the Philippines almost turned the ship around on 9/1, but instead they continued to their last port of call, Hawaii. So once again I get to see him via Facebook uploads.
He looks real good and I don't think the deployment was hard on him...though he bitched when on duty. They all bitch when on duty. :-)
Who knows where he will be stationed next time he returns to mainland America, but no mater what, I am glad he is coming home.
This photo was taken at one of his ports of call...Vietnam. You want to bet that he took it just to razz my number 2 son. :-)

I am glad too :-)
ReplyDeleteFirst thing he does in Hawaii...he got ANOTHER tattoo! Sometimes I just shake my head. lol
ReplyDeleteOtherwise, it is so good to see him almost back here.
