I couldn't have been a more proud parent. He would write me every chance he got, he would tell me not to worry.
"Things are pretty boring here, mom," he would write. "Can't wait to see you and dad real soon!"
The letters stopped coming. I asked them why but they wouldn't tell me. They could see I was worried, they would reassure me, tell that he's probably just unable to send a letter wherever he is. I began to tell myself the same thing.
They came by this morning with a flag and his tags.
