Good job Ken,  as a country we should never forget the sacrifice that so few men and women have made to protect the freedoms that the rest of the USA takes for granted.  It is very interesting how many military service families have been defending our freedom for multiple generations.  In my family my grandfather served in WWI and WWII, my dad served for 20 years as an Air Force pilot to include 3 tours in Vietnam, I served for 22 years as an Air Force pilot to include Desert Storm and numerous other locations.  Now one of my nephews is going to become a CRO (Combat Rescue Officer) in the Air Force and my 10 year old daughter wants to become a special ops pilot like her dad.  

As a disabled veteran it still surprises me how many of my fellow Texans thank me for my service, fly the American Flag and constantly support our troops.  I can't speak for the rest of the nation but here in Texas we have not and will not forget the price of freedom!  

Oh, and just because the 65 Anniversary of D-Day slipped your mind for a few hours doesn't mean you forgot the importance of the day.  Thanks for the very interesting information on D-Day and Vietnam.  For my family and myself there is no difference between a WWII, Korea, Vietnam, military peacetime service, Desert Storm, Iraq, Afghanistan and etc. veteran; they are all heros!  Thanks for your service to our country, cheers.

Norm

I know I have left out a few but I think you get the gist of how I feel.  To all the guys and gals who served this great counry all the way back to the seeds of the Revolution i say Thank You!   Sorry for rambling on.

If I have offended anyone feel free to give me a tongue lashing in  PM.

 

 

Once again Scott thank you for your post!

Good post KenThumbsUp02.gif, and thankyou.gif Scott.

I spent this last weekend at Drill and was dissappointed that nobody in the senior leadership made mention of D-Day. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt as it was a busy drill. We were making preparations for our upcoming Annual Training.
