To All Veterans...

THANK YOU!
I honor and respect all who have served and are serving.  A veteran taught me that.  It's still with me as the man who taught me is always in my heart.  His honor, his respect, his honesty, his patriotism was an attribute I wish more citizens had.  I am proud to say he was my father.
Thanks, Dad!
Thanks to all who have served and are serving.
May God bless you every one.

Thanks, indeed. My Dad served in Korea. Bill's Dad served in WWII. I thank each and every one, generations of men, women, and yes, critters, too. Hug.

Nice tribute; you have a good heritage. I have an uncle who was in the navy; my mom was in the army, and my grandpa was in the Marines. Respect to our veterans.
