To all Veterans & those that couldn't serve

[soretoe]

Thank you, all of you. I know we have several members that have served and are serving. Every one of you is a hero.

For those that wanted to serve but couldnt, thank you, all of you. You are heroes too.

With that being said this is for all of you;

Each and every breath of fresh air that we take for granted is made possible because of the sacrifices of heroes like you. Our most sincere gratitude is sent from our Douglasville Georgia home to the family and friends of all of you. It is because of your willingness serve in harms way that allow us to live free. You have or are serving as a defender of our freedom, may you rest on this day for honor and enjoy the limelight and gratitude that you deserve.

I eapecially want to say thank you to those of you that couldn't serve but tried. Your effort is appreciated and I respect your patriotism.

For the rest of us I hope you all enjoy giving thanks to people in uniform. Next time you see someone in uniform, shake their hand and thank them. All of them.

Yea I agree Thank you to all service members past and present. And thank you for recognizing those of us who willingly volunteered but for whatever reason the military was not interested in allowing us to join. In my case I was at MEPPS Ft Gillam sept 5 2001 and waiting for my hearing waiver to be approved when the towers fell. The way my recruiter put it. They were meeting their quota after 9/11 without having to sign waivers. So I was denied. None the less I have the utmost respect for our men and women in the armed forces. And graciously appreciate their sacrifice. God bless America and all Americans.

Well this is how i spent mine.. 02:00 wake up 02:30 Chow 03:00 Wake up Soldiers to train to Afghanistan 03:30 PT 04:00 Move soldiers to training 04:00 to 05:00 explain to these young men and women that today is my turn to be Ali baba and try to kill them and how and stop me.05:00 to 06:00 take out as many training troops as possable wasn't easy they accually listened. 06:00 to 10:00 am I had to have died in some of the most creative ways that i have ever seen atleast 15 times. My day winded up ending at 10:30pm but it was the most rewarding Vet. Day i have had. Guys please say a prayer for the soldiers of the 877Th. and their families. May they all return and join our brother hood of American Combat Vets.
