I think we are dating outselves, gentlemen.  US Army, 1968-72, 8th RRFS, Phu Bai, RVN, 1970-71.

And thanks to those in whose footsteps we followed and to those who have followed in ours.

I try to do something this time each year to remember old gone but not forgoten friends.
This year 1st Michigan Battery E  fired 21 rounds from the Parrott echo back by a mountain howitzer.
God bless them all.

Veterans day makes me think of my father who marched across Europe in WW2 and my uncle who was killed in France his first week there at the age of 19. I also think of all vets past and present, living and dead and thank them.
