Nicely done.
Ya shouldn’t make me cry this early in the morning.
Thank you
Streets, bridges, buildings etc… anything built from taxpayers funds should only be named after Veterans and not vile politicians or even the few decent ones like Reagan.

This is very well done.
This describes my dad, who fought in the Navy, Korea. He was a true patriot. He taught me to love America - our land and our Constitution.

My parents divorced when I was six, and I'd see him at most several times a year.
Both my stepfather and father weren't the types to vocally tell me (and their other sons) that they were proud of me. Let's face it, that was pretty much the norm from my viewpoint, and I've tried to do a better job with my kids...when they earned it. I don't hand out participation trophies...lol.
It struck me a few years ago of one time where my dad was proud of what his son had become. It was the summer of 1976, when I was going through the ADA Officers Basic Course at Fort Bliss. His job was relocating him to DC from San Bruno, CA, and he stopped by to see me for a couple of days.
The first night in town, I took him to dinner at the Fort Bliss Officers Club. It was just another night for me, but it was an experience for him, a former sailor, to be eating amongst numerous officers with his son, a 2nd Lieutenant.
OTOH, I could be wrong about that night, too...so be it.
I just found this.
