My son’s 2nd Grade Reading Log
Dear Sgt. Grit,
I just happened to look down at my kitchen table to find a reading log for my son who is in 2nd grade. My wife fills it out after he reads everyday and he has to submit to his teacher.
Take note of the April 12th entry (Sgt. Grit Catalog). I asked my wife about it and she said she told him to go do his reading for the day, when she looked over into the family room, sure enough his was reading your catalog so that's what she entered in the log.

A Man and His Son
This is Landon Carpenter –born one month after his Dad paid the price in Afghanistan serving with 3/8. It is clearly one of the most moving photos I have seen representing the sacrifice of our Marines in this conflict.
All gave some…some gave all. SF Rich
Enlisting
Well, as soon as I graduate high school, I am joining. At 18, I can't wait, I wanted to be called a Marine since I was 5. Semper Fi Marines.
Two Future Marines
My two grandsons age 6 and 2 love to wear a couple of old Garrison caps and play with grandpa’s old cap guns. They also love to sport the two temporary tattoos I bought when I visited your store a while back. I thought about putting the larger tattoos on their chests but figured their mom might not be happy if I did.

Twin Devil Pups and Sgt Grit’s Catalog
Dear Sgt Grit Staff,
I wanted to share this picture with you. My 2 year old twins found my husband’s copy of a Sgt Grit’s catalog on 4th of July this year. They had a blast flipping through the pages and I was able to take a few pictures. I’ve attached the best one.
