Good evening, radu...you were quick tonight. Did you have a day fitting for a birthday?

We had a little sun this morning, but mostly overcast and some rain.

Memorial Day Tribute early

“A Tribute. Scenes taken from Taking Chance”

I recommend reading all the comments below this video at the link above; here are a few:

“Having lost thirteen brave souls on my watch, I still cry tears for each of them. And I wonder what I could have done better to put them in a position to survive. We live for our troopers! This is the America I served twenty-five years for. God bless every one of these brave souls who gave it all for us all.”

“I had the HONOR of serving with the Finest. US MARINES.. Navy Corpsman 87 to 95................to all those who have gone down range.........to all those who still serve and have served. I THANK YOU...”

“A tribute to all who gave all. My uncle was MIA/KIA WWII. The hardest day of my life was being there as my husband received honors. He was a Vietnam Veteran—2 tours. Died of the affects of Agent Orange. It is not easy and never forgotten. Taking Chance was a great story.”

Just think of all the corrupt & treasonous politicians who are disgracing this nation and disgracing all who served past, present, and future. It should turn all our stomaches!
