Few of my soldiers in my squad served with this man. We remember him each year, for his actions. thanks for supporting those around you that are in, over there, and those who have paid the ultimate sacrifice.

Being a long term "peacenik", I'd like to add something. Feelings about past or current wars has nothing to do, in my mind, with those who have answered the call to serve. My brother served in Vietnam, and several people from work have served in Iraq. I have the upmost respect for veterans, and those currently serving. They deserve our support, and encouragement, and not just today!

I agree, being "anti-war" does not mean the sacrifices of others go unappreciated. Lest we Forget...

In my opinion, nobody wants war less than those that have to go fight it. I know when Desert Shield/Storm happened, we were all scared shotless. But, it also kinda validated our years of training. We didn't really want to go, but we knew we'd do the best damn job we posiibly could....

Thank you to all who fought for our rights, freedoms and families. Thank you for all the sacrifices that you and your familes made so my family could live without fear. We should not only honour these people one day a year, we should honour them all the year long.

I am thankful to all the men and women who have made the supreme sacrafice to protect the very freedoms I hold near and dear to my heart. Without their valient, unselfess acts of kindness and generosity we might be living entirely different lifestyles and be forced to drive ricemobiles.

Semper Fi to all Veterans today, and to all who appreciate the freedom the Veterans have provided.
