Crazyhorse Posted May 27, 2007 Report Share Posted May 27, 2007 thanX to all .......foremost for me, my grandad- retired navy..korean war , vietnam ( and a whole lot more places than i can remember). -jmo.........to support the troops you have to support the mission. you can't have one with out the other even if you don't agree with it. if people spend half as much time trying to find and offer real solutions as they did protesting and bashing the government which allows them those freedoms , the world would be a better place as well. remember you are an american and you didn't get to be one by tucking tail and bailing when times got tough. now "back home again in indiana"!!!!!

dano36 Posted May 27, 2007 Report Share Posted May 27, 2007 I want to add my thanks to all those that have served but mostly I want to honor those who have made the supreme sacrifice while serving in the armed forces of this great nation. That is what Memorial Day is all about. I served and retired from the military and would do it all over again if I had to. My only regret was having to retire. Participation in our armed forces declines with each passing year but I do honestly believe that the spirit of the American People will always be with us. And as long as that is the case we need not fear a foreign takeover. Again, thanks to all those that have served and a salute to all those who died keeping our country free.
