WHY I'M HERE
Introduction | Rick Jones

Posted on 11/11/2003 1:34:43 PM PST by rott357

I served in Vietnam in 69-70 with Delta Company, 2nd Platoon, 1st Squad, 4th Battalion, 12th Infantry Regiment, 199th Light Infantry Brigade (REDCATCHERS). I'm 100% disabled since 1994. I enjoy helping other veterans to attain their rightful benefits resulting from the sacrifices they made for their country. My wife Kim is also a veteran who served as an Army medic in Karlsruhe, Germany during Gulf War I. We're a very patriotic couple and appreciate and respect our current administration and especially our military. "God Bless the USA."
