You must be proud! You've got every right to be.
If he flies like he plays the Violin or (aka) fiddle, he is one fine pilot! I'm sure he does.

Very talented indeed.  No disrespect Swampman...he initially reminds me of Karl Childers (Billy Bob Thronton) in Sling Blade.

Like Billy Bob Thornton he can pretty much do anything well.  Two time Florida State Fiddle Champion and an excellent artist.

He will be a Major pretty soon.  A tour in Afghanistan in the air and a tour on the ground in Iraq.  He was in the last vehicle to leave Iraq where he acted as an Air Traffic Controler for all the aircraft protecting the convoy.  He was interviewed by Geraldo at the border.  He was selected for Air Liaison Officer of the year by the men he served with.  He gave me an American flag that he carried on 70 some missions along with the arming pin to a GBU that was dropped on some Taliban.
