Thank You Veterans

Marc Comtois

This picture is a good example of why we honor our veterans. No matter what, in times when most of us would take cover, they endure out of duty, honor and for their country. Thank you.

Marc,

You are welcome!

If I had to do it all over again, I’d be first in line volunteering to protect my country and freedom again.

Two volunteer years in Vietnam had some very dicey moments which separated the men from the boys!

@Ken W-yeah,it's strange-even knowing how seriously ill my tour in Vietnam left me,I'd still do the same thing maybe because I appreciate this country and service always seemed like an obligation I should fulfill.Just talking about it falls short.

Having visted the Tomb several times, I have noticed the sentries are always incredibly thin. I wonder what the requirements are.

Thanks Dan. I corrected the post, though the sentiment still stands!
