I'm 63 years old, never been in the miltary (not my choice) and have not yet worked up enough nerve to allow myself to visit "THE WALL".

Each time I see The Wall, I am filled with such sadness that it still brings tears to my eyes. I can't understand how the people of this great nation could treat our military personnel with such contempt.

I just want you Vets to know that I for one am proud of all of you and your efforts to keep us free.

God bless you all and keep you safe in his arms.

For all who cannot respond, and those who deserve your praise far more than I, I'll say: "Thank-you, brother."
