My wife had been out on our sometimes “prayer walk” around the track near our apartment for about 10 minutes when it became obvious that I needed something to cover my head in the cold. As I hopped the fence, my wife received a call from a Sergeant. She called me back saying that the call was for our son and asked me to take the phone to him.
We both thought that it was a follow up call from the local police department regarding his recent accident.
I took the phone to him, grabbed a “beanie” and rejoined my wife.
When we finally came in from the cold, we heard
“I am going to meet with the recruiter next Wednesday at 6:00.”
RECRUITER???? What recruiter?
It turns out that the Sergeant was a U.S. Army recruiter!
WHEN DID THIS BECOME AN OPTION?!??!
Son, we have to talk…
Whoah!
