Happy Veterans Day 2010

A ‘Veteran‘ — whether active duty, discharged, retired, or reserve —

Is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to “The United States of America,” for an amount of “up to, and including his life.”

These Individuals deserve to be honored! There are way too many people in this country today, who no longer understand that fact.
Not sure who originally wrote that but… its a point worth remembering.

Our Veterans, lay or have laid their lives on the line for us. Simple respect is the very least you should afford them.. No I really don’t want to get started.

For all of you that have served or are serving a truly heartfelt thank you, and God bless you and keep you safe.

I was looking at TheMasterOfTheUniverse’s medals the other day. A few years ago I framed them so our grandkids could ooohhh and aaaahhhhh and ask questions which has worked out pretty darn well… He has been off, recovering from surgery. I’ve been driving him crazy of course….
It was really scary to have him be on the other end of the recovery
road, no matter how minor the surgery. He is doing great. For which we are very thankful to God.

But the point of this post is that he is MY HERO!

He has 5 Vietnam campaign medals, Vietnam service medal, national defense service medals, meritorious unit medal, good conduct, army of occupation…….
a few others…
He is MY HERO! I thank God for him.
