Thanks for your service. Very disheartening to me to see what’s transpired since I got out around 50 years ago. Huh? 50 years? Yikes!

Thanks and the same to you. It’s a butt stroke to the head every day to see what is happening to our Country. Like Jim’s son, my daughter kept up the military tradition by going to the Naval Academy, becoming a chopper pilot, and flying missions in Iraq. Military families know what the term means to be ‘invested’ in the Red, White, and Blue. God be with the families of the Corpsman and the Marines lost in Kabul.
My folks from the past starting with the kerfuffle in the late 1700s, the troubles in the mid 1800’s, I and II and Korea, then me, then our youngest daughter, then our oldest grand daughter. So, yeah, we get it.
