Amen, Tim. Our church has a memorial service every year and it is always a nice time to reflect.
We must never take for granted what we have or the sacrifices our troops have made to protect that.

A guy on another board posted an aerial shot of the USS Arizona memorial at Pearl Harbor. I didnt' realize that you can still see her on the bottom beneath the memorial.

one of the greatest persons I have ever met was in world war 2 and he knew I am no nangel so he told me a bunch of "adult" stories...he was the nicest guy but also a realist and
I consider him and his wife great friends despite the fact they were almost fifty years older than me...I will tell you guys trhe story when I have more time....everything from his gay ship captan to Ed getting court martialed...a great guy who everybody loved.
