Something to think about today
« on: November 11, 2010, 05:33:36 AM »

    A Veteran - whether active duty, retired, 

 National Guard  or Reserve - is someone who, 

 at one point in his or her life, wrote 

 a blank check, made payable to 

 "The United States of America"

  for an amount of "up to and including my life."
That is honor, and there are far too many people 

 in this country  who choose to no longer

  understand such a commitment.

"No man who refuses to bear arms in defense of his nation can give a sound reason why he should be allowed to live in a free country."   T. Roosevelt

THOMAS JEFFERSON

That my two young sons may never have to know the horrors of war. 

I will stand for your rights as my forefathers did before me!
My thanks to those who have, are and will stand for mine!
To those in the military, I salute you!
