25. Dad in Navy 25 yrs,Nephew a SeaBee in Iraq, Niece in Navy (ship in Italy)

Youngest nephew graduated 2005 and joined Navy. He leaves for training in a few weeks. Other nephew (radical, had to be different)joined Marines right out of high school; served 6 years, now out.

Nephew currently in Iraq (2nd deployment)married high school sweetheart, she was in Navy until last June, now in reserves.

I'm a proud Navy brat(and proud Aunt) in a very anti-war family.

My bumper stickers have made quite a few people (I live in very republican area) comment to me that as a "leftie" I do not support the troops and I'm not patriotic. I laugh at their ignorance.
