Happy Memorial Day...

[Texas Yellow Fever]

You know, I never used to get choked up about shit...seems the older I get them more I realize what a great country we live in and how proud I am to have served it and be part of it...

This is long and you think it's over once, but keep watching, it's worth every minute...

This is a good read......

To honor fallen comrades, they wash the Wall

Every day is Memorial Day for veterans who tend Vietnam Memorial for free

That is a good read. "A Veteran is a person who wrote a blank check to this country..."

My wife and I were in DC last week. Visited Arlington and the WWII Memorial. On the Field Of Stars there are 4,000 stars each representing 100 lives lost.
God bless everyone who gave their life in the name of freedom as well as those who fought to protect it. There are approx. 30 ceremonies a day in Arlington.

From the earliest times in our nation's history, our loss's have been great. With the upmost possible respect I appreciate what the Men & Women of our Military do on a daily basis to preserve our freedoms......J
