Luckily it didn't come to giving my life, but I would have gladly given it for this country of ours.

A special thanks to all those serving now. I know how hard desert life is.

A very special thanks to those who came before, who helped make my service into part of a long very proud tradition.

My mom and uncle's grew up without a dad. He was gassed in the trenches of France WW1. M y mom gave me his flag that was draped on his coffin a few years ago I have it setting on top of our china cabinet so I'm reminded of the sacrafices that my family have made everyday. My dad and uncle were veterans WW2. My oldest brother was a Vietnam vet. So I thank every single person who has served this country. God bless you.

Eternal honour and thanks to those who did what they did to save the world from unspeakable evil, especially in WW II.

Millions paid with their lives, millions with their health, millions more with their youth, souls and sanity.

Father went ashore at Utah Beach in France a couple days after his 20th birthday. He was awarded 2 Purple Hearts for wounds and 2 Bronze Stars for valor before his 21st birthday.

And he was never right after that and passed before age 55. But they together saved the world from enslavement.

We can only thank them by being honourable ourselves. Whatever that takes.
