Merry Christmas! Have a wonderful, joyful, and peaceful holiday.
May the New Year bring joy, peace, and prosperity to you, your families, and all of our country.

Best wishes and regards from your Jewish friend,
TQ.

The veterans and those that serve now are my heros and we as Americans owe them so much.
Thank you for your kind words.

Think you can find an address for these gents? They should be honorary Freepers! I just rummaged my family's Christmas cards. I found ones for 1942 and 1944, but none for 1943 when our Port Washington neighbors signed the dollar bill. Darn it, I'd send 'em the '43 card if I could find it!

"May we all live long enough to be reading similar stories from aging American soldiers about how they were part of The Special Forces "Cavalry" that rode with the Northern Alliance in Afghanistan when they tossed the Taliban and Al-Queda into the ash-heap of history!"

I'll drink to that....
