Deepest Gratitude for all those who have served!
In particular, I have a message to all Veterans who served and did not see combat: I truly appreciate you guys and gals, too. I think sometimes that people tend to overlook you, and only focus on the combat veterans. While their sacrifice and heroism is unparalleled, don't ever let that diminish that fact that YOU were willing to put yourself in that same position, had the need arisen. In my eyes, you are no less heroic than they.

And I wish to thank YOU for your kind words! Yes, it IS the combat veteran(s) who deserve the most gratitude and plaudits for their time and even for their lives; however, if not for the guys and gals behind the lines, the ones giving support whether by paper or computer, those on the front lines would hardly have a snowball's chance in heat to be victorious. We ALL serve, served, or will serve in the future to support the ones who are on the front lines. Bless you for your words.
