I served with the 2nd Armored Div (Ft Knox) & 106th Trans Bn HHQ (Germany) from 1966-69. Joined up but couldn't go to Nam. So you can see why Memorial Day and Veteran's Day are very important to me and my family. I hope everybody realizes just how much our freedoms have cost us and never forgets the vets who won them for all of us. It's a brotherhood I'm proud to be a part of. God bless America!!!
