What began as a compilation of experiences during the Gorman family's time with the military, from active duty in Hawaii, to the reserves and a reserve deployment, has moved beyond. It's the ups and downs, the transitions, the frustrations, and the joys of every day. In 2016, blogging more than Jennifer, Gandalf & Nora took over as the primary bloggers, with Jennifer as a background narrator.

Things Created Over a Beer
Just read Sean's entry for today- Last week the morning show on Q107 (of which I am a loyal follower) shared a list of the Top Ten Things Created Over a Beer. Close to the top was the US Marine Corps. Created in Tun Tavern on November 10, 1775- this is a fact known to anyone who has served or worked with the Marines. My boys know it. Keren likely will too when she's a little older, having heard it every year. I barely remember my own age, but I know the day the Marine Corps was founded. Just 18 days later the Chaplain Corps was created. I guess someone had to keep those Marines in line.
