Thank you to our Veterans today and every day
I just saw this forum and wanted to thank everyone who has served our Nation and pause for a moment to reflect on those who've given all in defense of it. Its too seldom shown the appreciation it affords to posses such a selfless dedication to a higher purpose, that dedication which safegaurds our liberty, freedom, and prosperity here at home where we can exist in a peace that most of the world has seldom known. Without taking some stance politically I will say I pray that our nation could collectively stop for a moment with the bickering and demonizing and realize we are all Americans and damn well lucky for that. We may look beyond our spoilt and safe environment to the nations in disarray with wars or persecution or raging diseases and thank our lucky stars for vets who've made that happen.

Yes indeed, and welcome to the forums.
Wow, what an awesome and spot on first post. Welcome to the forums.
Good post, we have Memorial Day for those that gave it all and it is well deserved, today is for all of us Veterans that agreed to give it all! Myself and all the others who's check was never cashed thank you and I bet the majority still believe that if needed we would make sure that check clears. Welcome to the forums.
