For Veterans - Thought for Today

Post by DeathValleyScotty » 03-03-2008 11:43 PM

"A veteran, whether active duty, guard or reserve, is someone who, at one point in their life, wrote a blank check made payable to "The United States of America" up to and including their life."

No matter how you feel about the military and the current state of affairs, the above statement applies to ALL veterans. Something to think about when you remember those who didn't make it back alive. Honor our Vets no matter the branch.

Wild card? You bet.
None of us is as smart as ALL of us...

My concern is for our Veterans and Soldiers now in the miliary..........the current state of affairs is sickening and they are put in harms way for a war they can never hope to win, bring our men and woman home now.
