Welcome home to all of our returning brothers. Never forget that all gave some...but some gave it all.
Welcome Home. Thank you for your sacrifices.
I salute all of them !
In memory of all our Brothers that didn't come home...they were the true hero's.
thanks pal still brings tears after all thes years
Thanks to all who served, for their sacrifice and the sacrifice of their families.
I remember it like it was yesterday when the older brother of a classmate came to our classroom door to tell him their oldest brother had died in Nam. I remember his funeral in our high school gym where he had been a star basketball player just a couple of years earlier.
Hoooo Raaaaa
A big thanks to all those who serve. Remember freedom isnt free.
Ive been to that memorial, very surreal. A lot of mourning still occurs there.
Always remember those who paid it all, appreciate all those that have served, hold in prayer those currently serving, and try to teach the youth what patriotic service is to instill a drive to serve in the future.

I shared something on FB that I feel would be fitting here. All should at least watch this IMHO!

Listened to a radio program with the guy who's in charge of maintaining the memorial. He spoke of many things but what stuck in my head was the way young people react when they approach the entrance. Class trips will head that way and be chattering and cutting up, until they begin to descend down into it and a change begins. By the time they are down to where the names are in front of them there is silence, hardly a sound. Though they mostly don't know anyone who's name is there in front of them they are in awe of the memorial and what it stands for. Shows me that even though we sometimes have a hard time understanding and finding common ground with the younger people, they understand what respect is about. I hear many interviews in my time on the road but this one was moving, much more so than any other in recent memories.
I was never in the military, never had the chance to serve. Viet Nam was over and downsizing made me just an average guy. This time of year, Memorial day and Fourth of July remind me of the fallen and the sacrifices given by them and their families. My Thanks and Respect to those who have given their service, and Welcome Home. It isn't enough to repay you all, but it is all I have.
VERY Powerful, indeed.Quote:
