I feel I must apologize to all that have served and to those who have fallen. I have added a half staff flag to the start of this thread. You all have not been forgotten.

GOD BLESS ALL.

If you want to thank me, wait and do that on Veterans Day in November.
I do understand your point of view and respect your request.I feel we shouldn't have to wait for a single day. I try to thank any and all current enlisted folks and/or veterans whenever I see them because without them I might not have the ability to tell them how I feel.
