go army?

[JazmenFlowers]

my sweet 22 yr old brother has decided to join the army. he signed his papers Friday and ships out on November 9. won't be home for Thanksgiving or Christmas for 2 years. I am so beyond upset I can't explain. I've cried until I don't think I can cry anymore. I don't know why he has decided to do this, but he's so sure it's the right thing to do. I realized there's no talking him out of it, so I just told him I hated the idea of it, but that I'd support him as best I could. please keep him in your thoughts.
