Happy Veteran Day!!!!?

I know it is not for another hour here but to some of you guys it already is. I want to say thank you for doing what most people won't or are scared to do and that is risking your life for us. Thank you to everyone who is or has served our country. You guys rock. Almost all of my family has been in the service and my husband and a bunch of my friends are in Iraq right now. I pray everynite you guys come home safe. And god forbid anything happen to my husband over there I would be proud to tell our son his father was a hero and died fighting for his country. A lot of people put down service members and I think that until they have walked even a mile in their shoe's they need to shut their mouth. I just want to say thank you and god bless you all. HOOAH!!!!!

    Thanx for the "HOOAH", My family has always been in the service! 7 generations, and counting, we've had our losses, but we are still FREE!! As an ole VN vet, awaiting my son,my nephew, and cousins return from Iraq/Afgan, I can only PRAY, for all of our men! We, as Americans pay a heavy price for FREEDOM, I pray for the vets past&future, and their families, as their pain is also extreme!! GOD BLESS THE USA

    My grandfather, father, uncle, nephew, cousin and I appreciate the acknowledgment. And yes, it has been Veteran's Day over here in Iraq for about 7 and a half hours now.

    I completely agree with you, and I may not be a soldier, but I appriciate you saying this. My cousin is a soldier but he was killed in January of this past year. I agree with you in thanking the soldiers and I hope they all come home soon and safe.
