Tribute To HEROES

.

If there's anything that identifies and personifies all military people, it's the dogtags.
It's one of the first things we get, and sometimes it's the last reminder of who we are.
They signify our unity of purpose and our dedication to our country.

.

The great intangible of America's wars beyond logistics,
beyond strategy, beyond wonder weapons and Generals,
is the spiritual force of its fighting men and women -
and that is the force that the USO so serves.

Today's FEEBLE attempt at humor:

After a long night of making love the young guy rolled over, pulled out a
cigarette from his jeans and searched for his lighter. Unable to find it, he
asked the girl if she had one at hand.

"There might be some matches in the top drawer," she replied. He opened the
drawer of the bedside table and found a box of matches setting neatly on top
of a framed picture of another man. Naturally, the guy began to worry.

"Is this your husband?" he inquired nervously.

"No, silly," she replied, snuggling up to him.

"Your boyfriend then?" he asked.

"No, not at all," she said, nibbling away at his ear.

"Well, who is he then?" demanded the bewildered guy.

Calmly, the girl replied, "That's me before the operation."

FReeper NYCop sent me this and I have his permission to share it with you.

"Today at work I had the pleasure of being thanked in person by one of the guards at Gitmo for my letter which was printed in the base newsletter. I found out that JT160 is located right here in Uniondale LI and he said the guys all love getting mail. It felt real good to hear him say thanks. I told him of our upcoming collections of items listed by Snow Bunny and he said the guys would appreciate anything we could do. This soldier is also a Nassau County Police Officer and he came to interpret for us on a robbery case. The whole thing was very cool. Thanks for your help with that."

Thanks for the photo tribute to ALOHA RONNIE.
Boy, that poignant photo with young Ted Kennedy - what promise!
What a good looking young man.
How different things could have been if TK possessed some moral character.
What a waste!
Very sad.
