.....hope everyone is having a good day. Just a thought if you know anyone who was a Veteran just walk up or call and say Thank You.

This is a great site for anyone who lost a loved one in Vietnam.

Wanted to go down to The Wall today but I knew it would probably be swarmed by people. I gotta try to make it later this week.

But I do know of a few people on this site who are currently serving.

Just wanted to say thank you.

Absolutely. Been thinking a lot (more so than usual) about my college roommate this weekend, who as many of you may recall was shot and killed serving in Afghanistan this past fall. It's doubly tough because this week would have been his birthday as well

Much respect to all who serve and have served.

If it where not for our current soldiers, our veterans, and the many veterans that lost there life for our freedom we would have no United States, for that I say THANK YOU! It doesn't take much effort to thank a veteran for the sacrifices they have made for our country and the freedoms we so often take for granted when you get a chance we all owe them that much respect, try it might just make your day.

For the fallen brothers and sisters that lost their lives protecting and serving this great country. YOU ARE NEVER FORGOTTEN!

I retired after 25 years of service in the US Navy just 2 years ago. Anyone who is currently serving I want to let you know that there is always a special place in my heart for my brothers.

No matter where you may be deployed, if you turn your ear in the direction of home, the cheering you hear will be mine, and it shall go on for all of my days.
