Permission granted
My Stepdaughter's boyfriend just asked us for permission to take her hand in marriage! Of course we said yes.. He is a fourth year electrician working out of calgary, ex PPCLI, Afghanistan veteran. We'd be very proud to have James as a son-in-law.

When we first met him and he told me he served with the 2 bn PPCLI, I knew he was a fine upstanding fellow. I told my wife, Alice that she has nothing to worry about as far as Rachelle and James are concerned. He would treat her with the utmost respect.. I wasn't wrong. I'm very happy and proud of them both.

Congrats!
We've got a son-in-law in the forces too, he grew up in a rather 'rough' situation but has become a very honourable young man, great husband, and a wonderful father himself now .

I thought asking permission was a thing of the past.. Good to see some traditions surviving.
