Bless them. We owe them so much.

I'm a veteran too, but not like these.

Thanks for sharing.

I also am technically a veteran, I was in after Viet Nam and before the Gulf War. Nobody shot at me and for that I'm grateful.

The world owes a debt to these soldiers that cannot be repaid.

Thank you for the photos. Looks like that Marine has seen it all! I come from a family of 10 brothers and 2 sisters. Of me and my nine brothers eight of us have served. Four of us are retired veterans. Five of us were serving at the same time.


I salute you and your patriotic family!

He’s a Sergeant Major if I’m counting the rockers right.

In photo #4. Wow, seven hash marks. 7 * 4 is28 years - but were some of his Marine hitches longer than 4 years.

Note: I did one Navy hitch.
