My uncle Kenny is now retired from the military. He was in the army for a good thirty years or so. His last mission was just recently. About 4 years ago, he was still in the army and was called to Kuwait to assist the American forces. We had a going away party for him and my mom was crying because she did not want to lose her last uncle. I felt a little sad too, but I mainly felt pride. About 2 years ago, my uncle Kenny came home and my mom was relieved. I am always proud of my uncle Kenny, and he is always proud of me.
