For most young children whose parents serve overseas in our nation's armed forces, their parents' occupation is murky at best. It's not like they can show up for Take Your Son or Daughter to Work Day and sit at their desk and see what they do all day. Two boys in Florida, however, got an up close and personal look at just what a hero their Army dad is when he thwarted a recent bank robber. Eddie Peoples was home from his fourth overseas deployment on leave, when he found himself and his two sons, 4 and 6, in a bank that was being robbed. At first Peoples cooperated with the robber's threats and got his sons down, but when the robber threatened his older son upon leaving, Peoples wasn't prepared to leave it at that. He told the Sarasota Herald-Tribune, "When he threatened my son, I could not let that pass."
