[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 376989, member: 1514"] I have never dropped one off at college but I so remember dropping my son off to be taken to boot camp for the Marines. We had to drive him up to meet up at the place where a bus would pick up all the recruits to take them down to Parris Island. All the way there we were just kind of quietly talking. Not much joking around or anything. The war had started less than a year before so we all knew what he was getting in to. It was a sobering ride. When we had to leave him after just a few minutes, we were all in tears. We knew we wouldnt hear from him except by letter for a long, long time. Tony and I cried buckets of tears the whole way home. Oddly enough, it rained that night. [/QUOTE]
