Veterans

A place to rant about politics, life, or just anything you damn well feel like telling others.

Veterans

Post by bubba »

Thank you.

The above is a project me and my boy did for his 2nd grade class. He picked, I drew, he colored. There are names on the drawing under the eagle, but at the request of some family the names have been removed for the public forum. It listed 4 names (small fraction of family that served) at the bottom. 2 Korea vets, 1 made it, 1 MIA. 1 Vietnam vet, made it. 1 Iraq vet, KIA.

Currently have several family, friends, and co-workers serving in Afghanistan, some of which are in their 4th tour..

Our country wouldn't be the same without our veterans.

No offence Dan, but I am not a fan of Bangers and Mash.

Thanks to all the veterans, living, dead, and future. Without them we'd have no freedoms left.

Semper Fi! Thanks to all of our branches too!

My great uncle gave his life for our country on a tiny island in the Pacific, my other great uncle was on one of the first submarine missions to the north pole, and my brother just got out of the USMC this past year.

Thanks for doing what I don't think I could.
