Great point!!!! AS a former soldier, we appreciated those who supported us, whether or not they supported our commanders or congress!!!!
This weekend, as we enjoy being off work (well some of us, I'm off tonight, then work the next 3), each time we grab a cold drink or enjoy a tasty morsel, think of those who have and are protecting your freedoms and defending your country. Keep in mind the sacrifice that so many brave men and women made to keep this the GREATEST COUNTRY in the world. When you look at the flag, remember what it stands for and give it the respect it deserves. Few nations in the world today can say that they've never benefitted from the services of the United States Armed Forces, and that should make all of us PROUD TO BE AMERICANS!!!!
Droptine,
A Salute to you from a fellow VETERAN, fellow AMERICAN, and fellow hunter, who supports his troops 100%, and while we may have had some interservice jabbing, Army vs. Marines, Marine vs. Air Force, Navy vs. Army, etc, WE ALL WOULD SUPPORT EACH OTHER 110%, if any of the others were attacked. Though they always referred to the other services as "Sister Services," I always considered them more "BROTHER Services," because we could pick on each other, but WOE be unto anyone else that tried to pick on any of our BROTHERS (just like many families of the past and present)!!!!!
God Bless the TROOPS, MARINES, SAILORS, and AIRMEN, the COASTIES the keep our borders safe, and the VETERANS who've gone before.
