 Proud to have served guys/gals and thank you for your service. Several of us guys from our local American legion post went down to the local nursing home and thanked our vets there personally. There were about 20 of them including 4 ladies (Army nurses) and all but 1 were WW2.
   I would like to give a little "thank you" to all our current troops..and a special thanks to the Marines that served in th 22 MEU (Spec Ops) in '05 & '06..my grandson's unit.
If you don't want the truth, don't ask me.  If you want something sugar coated...go eat a donut !  (anon)
