Thank you Veterans

November 11, 2013 | Steve McGough | |

“I was there. I saw your sons and your husbands, your brothers and your sweethearts. I saw how they worked, played, fought, and lived. I saw some of them die. I saw more courage, more good humor in the face of discomfort, more love in an era of hate and more devotion to duty than could exist under tyranny.”

– Bob Hope

    All vets are special! I can’t believe the courage it takes to sign up to serve, never knowing where or how you would be deployed. Thank you all.

      Well, we are glad you lived through it. So many others did not.

      I’m just kidding again,Lynn. I went willingly like most of the other 5 million & we came back better men for it. My service kept me alive in my darkest days,I’m happy to say.
