WAR IS A BAD THING....BUT WHEN NEEDS BE....PEOPLE MUST FIGHT...RIGHT OR WRONG....TO DEFEND THEIR WAY OF LIFE. I THANK THOSE WHO SERVE AND HAVE SERVED TO PROTECT THE NOBEL IDEALS OF A NATION WHO HAS GOOD INTENTION BUT DOES MAKE ERRORS AS ANY NATION DOES.

GOD FORBID ANY SHOULD DIE......GOD BLESS US AS WE MAKE OUR STUMBLING PATH TO A BETTER WORLD FOR ALL!
I'm a proud and old veteran. I remember the time that we (my unit) were ready and waiting to be deployed...to a place unknown, basically. Got the call, grabbed the bag, and waited by the flightline. The year was 1979. Our mission was to have been towards the freedom of our hostages in Iran. There I was, in my fatigues and combat boots, duffel bag by my side...waiting for the command to board up. It never came, for someone higher up the chain of command called the mission off that night. Yes, I'm a veteran...and it still brings me pride.

Bottom line guys is you dont have to agree with what someone does for a living but you give credit when it is due. In some rare cases we say thank you for those people who do special jobs ie doctor, army vet, firefighter, police etc. However we now we say a special thank you on this day of rememberance. So I say thank you to those who are serving, Be careful to those who are serving, and American loves you and thanks you to those who are starting or thinking of serving in the future. God bless everyone of you and may all your dreams come true.
