Thanks for the reminder DB but I'm lucky enough( if you can call it lucky) to have a lifetime license for being a 100% disabled vet.

Blackhawk19,
I'm a combat vet of Iraq (2 tours) and Afghanistan (once) so first let me say thank you for your service. Second, you're luck to be home, but any special consideration you have for being 100% disabled is earned and will never come close to repaying our debt to you.
Best wishes!
×2 thanks to both of you. And thanks for the reminder. I always forget.
Live Simply, Love Generously, Care Deeply, Speak Kindly, and Trust in our Creator who Loves us
Our nation is eternally grateful for your service guys. Thanks for the reminder DB
