I’m married, have 2 grown daughters, one of which is in Navy bootcamp today!!, 2 teenage stepsons, one grown stepdaughter who has 2 beautiful children. I spent four years in the Navy and my husband retired from the Navy after 21 years. I have a gorgeous Golden Retriever named Jenna (after the blond twin) It only seemed fair since the Bush family had a dog named Millie. I also have a hurricane Katrina survivor mutt named Chloe.

Found on a friend of a friends website: “A veteran - whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve - is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to “The United States of America”, for an amount of “up to and including my life.” That is honor”
