I know what you mean.When I go to VA hospitals now just to visit and sit and listen quietly, I keep hearing one thing in my head....." They left as boys and in one moment in the blink of an eye had to become men and face things no young boy should ever have to face.".
That is why I am so grateful for those that have served this land. They did not dodge the draft like others, they were all so very brave.
Thank you for your post and Welcome Home.
Good post. I,too, salute our veterans although I never got to sing for them!
