Very common 'round here. But today especially, because it's Memorial Day in the states. A day we set aside to honor all who have served...past and present.

Our vets fought and lost their friends just to protect our freedom. Without them our lives would be alot harder. Even though the government may have screwed them over they forever have my respect!

At least now, due to the diligence especially of the Vietnam Vets, today's vets are being taken care of. It isn't a perfect system, but much better than it was for them. I thank those Vietnam Vets especially like my dad and close friend John, without them I would never have received my disability nor the care that I need when I need it. I would also like to remember my old roomie from Fort Hood, Scottie, for he died not on the battlefield, but after returning from combat lost his life to a drunk driver.

you're welcome
my pleasure to help out...it's really uncommon for people to say that. believe it or not, even when i was in uniform in public, i never heard it. when i flash my ID and ask for a discount or use that as a form of entry somewhere, i never hear it. i mean i hear it from family and friends sometimes, but not random people... makes me feel warm and fuzzy. |

It does occur. Just not as much as it really should.
