What a great thread! Am I correct in surmising this is a weekly thing? This is the first time I've seen it.

God Bless all our young men and women serving in the military. They're well appreciated by folks like us but under-appreciated by the masses who take them for granted. The people of Afghanistan, Iraq, Lebanon, Egypt, Israel, etc. have them as the example of freedom, courage and righteous determination for a just cause that they so sorely need to persevere. God's work is truly being done.

I don't have a request, rather a suggestion, for your next thread. Billy Joel's "Good Night, Saigon", I've always been moved by this song because I see it as a tribute to our Viet Nam vets, who came home to ridicule and contempt when they were every bit as courageous and dedicated as any "popular" war veterans. We can never thank our troops enough, in any generation, but, in a larger sense, we can't apologize to them enough for spitting in the face of honor.

Thanks for the music.

Bob
