Thank you, dear Lady.
My brother added up my family’s service times and histories: Going back to my grandfather in WWI and Nicaragua in the mid-20’s (and Chinese Yangtze river patrol boats in the 1930’s) , we’ve had 196 years of military time.
I can only thank you, once again. Being a military dependent for over 30 years gave me an insight on what it takes to “stand and wait.” And so, Rob’t, I appreciate your service! <3
That’s a lot more years than my paltry 30 years! Though my Dad was a drummer boy in the cavalry...when they were on horses...maybe I’ve got 32 years military service... ;o]
We never did anything like that. My father’s father had his lungs damanged in WWI. My dad went to West Point and served his 3 years. His brothers also got their college education thanks to the various branches. I served 4 for ROTC.
I, too, thank you for your service.
