American Son

An American Son is an allegorical tale of the boy next door. He could be you, your son, father, brother and daughter. He is a composite of the fiber that makes America great. He represents what we have and what we have lost. He is the spirit of those that returned and those that did not. He is our hopes and dreams. He is what makes America richer with his life and poorer with his death.An American Son is the thread from which America is woven: from Bunker Hill to Iraq and Afghanisthan. If you served this great country and returned, I salute you. If you served and did not, I honor you in the only way I know.May God Bless our American sons and daughters,Tom Oathout
