When I first went in back in the late 70's, something like this would have been unheard of. Thanks.

Make sure you thank a WWII vet. The greatest generation is fading fast. Without them the world would be a much different place.

Thanks to all that are active duty! You make us very proud.

I appreciate the thanks for my service.

First of all, great thread....

Secondly, thanks to my grandfather who served during the European campaign of WWII..... somehow lived to witness the signing of the armistice......

Thirdly, thanks to my father..... he served in Vietnam and survived to tell me his stories of survival..... of course, my parents have allowed me to pursue my dreams and become a structural engineer.

Lastly, and most certainly not least... in fact, on par with the rest.... I thank the Veterans of the War on Terrorism. Several of my friends have served in Afghanistan(yes, there is still conflict in this budding Democracy) and Iraq....

NEVER FORGET
