Have a wonderful holiday, and come to the other thread when it's ready shortly. There will be fireworks there too. :-)
I do reflect that not only did my father give his life for our dear country...but his 'four' young children, ages 3ys. to 10 yrs.,.. did as well in many repects, though they didn't realize this at the time for their tender ages.
However...Having later two sons who also served..and one who still remains in "The United States Air National Guard"...and the other formerly of "The United States Marine Corp". I am pleased ...beyond measure ....we are all Patriots of this great nation.
"Freedom has a price".....every bit worth dying for and the sacrifices one makes.
