John, I'm sure that deep down beneath your anxiety, you must be very proud of him. To have sired a son with such a strong sense of duty, commitment and courage is a fine thing, more so when viewed in contrast to the majority of his peers who populate the street corners of any big city in Canada.
He and you will be in our hearts and minds through the course of his tour.
