I went to a Marine Corps birthday party once and they served C rats. At least the wives got to taste them. I of course grabbed the beans and weenies. I got the ham and mothers for my wife. You had to have been in combat to appreciate those choices.

I NEVER pass a service personnel without shaking their hand and thanking them for their support. They give their lives so we can lay down our heads and sleep safe at night. A hand shake goes a long ways. Let them know we appreciate them with all of our hearts. We have lost millions of solders to save American lives. It's the ultimate sacrifice to us from many who care so much to serve our country, the best damn nation in the world. Salute to all of them...

Between the MC Birthday and Vets day, I absorb way more beer than needed to. Happy Birthday to my Semper Fi buddies and Thank You to my Vet buddies.

All lost or MIA's deserve the highest of high when it comes to sacrifices. Our men run to gunfife rifles in hand and not a bomb strapped to their chest that's what makes a solder smart and stupid. Sure we had a lot jump on a bomb to save lives and not to take out people, especially innocent people. Using your brain is what makes our solders superior to other country's, way superior. I personally surort and respect and even more thank each and every one of them including my dad.
