Words fail me. With "telegram" and "soldier", you met or exceeded all fr expectations and hopes. You are in a league of your own (seriously, I hope you do this stuff for a living). But now (NOW), with "monument", I've got to build some freakin' hall of fame. I've gotta go to home depot tomorrow and get the 2x4's and sheetrock and all that other stuff to construct some kind of space to celebrate folks like yourself. Thanks. Thanks a freakin' lot.

Croix de Guerre - sounds like a sauce.
