merica´

As a kid i would spend every summer visiting my family in Washington State. They live in a small town right next to Joint Base Lewis-McCord, in pierce county. Even though they arent originally from WA, they decided to move out there when my uncle was Assigned to McCord AFB. Every day during the summer i would play outside my grandmas house, waiting for my Uncle to get off work. And every day he would pull into the driveway wearing his ABUś, or (Airman Battle Uniform) the classic green and brown camo unis. To me those uniforms were art.  At a young age he explained to me that they stood for something good. Later on when i understood the responsibility of Serviceman, I understood that they also stood for bravery. My uncle is a very polite and good man to begin with, but when he wore that uniform he acted extremely polite. I truly believe that being around so many service members including my uncle, from a young age, molded me into a patriot and made me strive to serve my country. I believe that a warriors uniform is Art.

  1. That's a different perspective that is really interesting to hear about. It is cool how your uncle's uniform had so much meaning you were excited to see it everyday. The value you had for this is what made it art.
