Remember to thank a veteran

[Hanta Yo]

I felt a lot of emotion reading your post Kato. What a brave man. My hat goes off and my heart goes out to him.

And it seems that most of the soldiers DIDN'T talk much about what they encountered.

That is what got John Kerry in trouble, all the blabbing he did about being a war hero. The real HEROES said nothing at all.

AMEN

Enough said.
With unspeakable gratitude.
When I lay awake at night worrying about something that always turns out to be a piddling little thing, before I go to sleep, I try to remember those who are defending our freedom; then I lose some sleep for a good reason.

Wow.......
THANK YOU.....
I've got that salt water thing too. Think I'll call my dad. He was in Japan during WWII.
Murgen, I did mail your shorts....Let me know when you get them. I even insured them... :wink:

thanks, was going to save this for later in the week but what the heck. Could not wait to share it. Just printed it up to send to him so he can share it with the others. I have never in my life felt so humble as when walking through Arlington. Hope I get to go back again someday.
Haymaker, thank him yourself, he used to read Ranchers some himself and he was here when we went to Deadwood, he would probably really get a kick out of it.

BTW, the W is for Wayne, maybe that is why he has an attitude. :!:

Very nice poem.

A big thank you to ALL veterans and those that are currently in the Armed Forces your sacrifices are greatly appreciated...
