    My Dad was second generation WWII, my Uncle was third in Korea, guess I was third too in the jolly green....Forgive me but I am glad my son missed being the 4th, but I pray for those guys in harm's way every day....

    The more we can keep people from saying "pull out" the more of them will live..

    My Pop was assigned to the Arizona which was docked there in Pearl, but he was comissioned to carry documents from the Arizona to the Harbor Master when the attack began. If he had been five minutes later, he would have gone down with the battleship Arizona, still on bottom in Pearl Harbor. He passed 9 years ago......God rest his soul, and the men that were killed there.

    I used to work with a gentleman that was a WWII Vet. He and his twin brother served together. Both saw a lot of action but by the grace of God both returned safely. My thanks to them and to all that served in this very trying time. Myself, I spent a couple of tours in The "Nam" and know what it is like to far away from family and loved ones. My heart and prayers goes out to our troops wherever they are and to their families. No matter how we think politically, above all, we need to support out troops 100%.

    I personally thank all those who served and are serving in the Military and hope they all return home to their loved ones safe. I did'nt serve in the Military and have no idea what you guys that did went through, but I am a American born and bread and I am so thankfull for all of you that made it possible for me to bring my kids up in a Free America the good ole USA. I was too young for Vietnam still in my school years but have alot of friends that served and came back having many problems coping with what they went through. I thank God everyday for them Men and Women that are serving and have served in our Military to give us the oppertunity to be Free Thank You Men and Women again for Courage and Dedication to this Fine Country that we live in if it wasnt for you this would be a terrible place. Terry
