Scope and content
Rose (a mother) explains how her son is 20 years younger than her daughter and was always close to her. They never discussed any aspect of the military even though her husband and brother were in the navy during the Vietnam war. Her son's decision to join the army came as a complete shock. She tried to convince him not to join the army but he was determined and became a combat engineer who dealt with explosives. He was injured during one of his missions in Afghanistan when a bomb exploded and was trapped under his vehicle going in and out of consciousness. He is blessed to be alive and has been able to continue doing his job. He did have injuries to two frontal lobes and lost some hearing. She is hoping that his injuries will improve with therapy but it's hard. She has had the support of her family and people from her school who always ask about her son.
