Title: Veterans Day, Thank you!
Post by: Zapato on 2008-11-06 23:05

I know its a few days early.

Never know when I'll drop in here so I wanted to take a moment to thank all past and present Vets for their service and commitment to not only our country but to each other.

And to my fellow Viet Nam vets "WELCOME HOME".javascript:void(0);

In my job I work with the military on a daily basis, mostly Air Force, but some Army and Navy.  I make sure to tell the "Thank You" as often as I can, because we may not always have the chance to do that.  Again, a big Thank You to all of our uniformed services for everything you guys have done and continue to do on a daily basis.

Veterans Day is a special day for all Americans to celebrate the men and women of the armed forces that make it possible for all of us to enjoy the freedoms this great Country provides.  It is great to see that irregardless of how we civilians feel about our involvement in the various conflicts throughout the world in this post-cold war environment, we can still celebrate the young men and women putting their lives on the line every day. 

My back yard opens onto an active military air field and I have an opportunity to wave to and salute the air crews as they taxi by my home.  Even better than the sound of my 57 with its headers open at 6,000 RPM, is the sound of freedom every time I hear the sound of an F-18 taking off with its afterburners wide open.  Thankfully, there doesn't seem to be a bunch of Hanoi Janes, etc. around today, who weren't so grateful and instead celebrated our foes when we were serving.
