Thank you! You have no idea how much things like this are appreciated service members. They remember.

Beautiful traditional Americana. The way it should be.

The Aitken’s plan to host another big Thanksgiving meal next year, but they’re also looking at ways to help military service members all year long.


A reminder to all of us to do something.................

This is awesome.

The loneliest times for a new guy can be this time of year. The command tries to make things better by granting leave but somebody has to stay. The chow halls were decorated to make it a little better, but that was often a reminder, not home this year.

The best thing was to be invited to someone's house for dinner Still, at the end, it was the phone call home then back to the barracks or to your duty shift.

It's just another day to the rest of the world.

God bless our troops, God bless those who reach out to them and God bless America.

Golden Corral had free dinners for Veterans in honor of Veterans day. The offer started at 5. People were already lining up at 3. Is ‘free’ worth it if you have to stand in line for everything?

How dare they feed people who actually help keep our county safe? Shouldn’t they be feeding the dregs of South America that Biden has thrown open the border for? We obviously don’t have enough drones contributing nothing to the country so we needed to import more - preferably from Venezuela where they voted for socialism, destroyed the country (except for the ruling class) and will do so here.

Very nice thing to do.

It should be noted, I don’t remember there ever being a food problem on holidays on base. I spent a couple of Thanksgivings and Christmases on Pendleton and other Marine Corps bases and was always fed something special on holidays.

The vast majority of Americans have no idea of the sacrifices our military endures.

I missed Thanksgiving and Christmas with my family in 1969, 70 and 71.....And nobody gave a thought about it.
