MEMORIAL DAY.......

[lvrgsp]

I hope everyone has a safe and memorable memorial day. I hope everyone can stop for a moment during your busy weekend to reflect on those that gave us that ultimate sacrifice.
My Father and Uncle were both in the Vietnam Conflict, my Father was fortunate to make it home, while my Uncle gave his sacrifice.

My father was in the service for 22 years and I would go out of my way to give.Love our Vets......

I hope everyone takes time to think about the cost of freedom and gives thanks so many have been willing to give their all to protect ours and provide it for others. Without freedom, I am not sure life would be worth living, and the very least we can do is say a prayer for all of those who have made the effort for all of us. God Bless them, one and all, and thanks for the sacrifice.

A huge Thank You out to the vets past and present, and lets not forget their families that sacrifice also.
Freedom is not Free.

Please give a thought to my cousin, Herman Miller, who lost his life in the middle of the night on harbor patrol in Viet Nam - ambushed on a 14ft Boston Whaler as part of the Inshore Undersea Warfare Group. He was just a good 'ole boy from TX and AR, serving his country.

We should honor them all, past and present, each and every day. They should stand in constant reminder to us all, absolutely, freedom is not free.

Thanks to all other Veterans, and we honor those having given the ultimate sacrifice.

I just want to thank all the veterans out there in this forum, I too serve with great pride, but what myself and my fellow soldiers have done is nothing compared to what some of you have experienced and sacrificed for the rest of us. My deepest thanks and admiration.
