Servicemen and Women
 
Im not a very mushy person or any of that stuff. Guess I’m more like my old man than I figured. But just wanted to ask that we keep our Servicemen and Women in our thoughts and prayers throughout this Holiday Season. As you hoist a cold one Give these guys & gals a quick thought. I have a couple of buddies over there as I’m sure many of you have. I have a friend of the family over there now who is a college grad with honors who refused OCS, and went into infantry like his old man. Young guy too, took a few rounds and practically destroyed his arm. Docs told him he would’nt use it again. Some 18 months of rehab and surgery he got use of his arm back. Was offered a desk job and refused.. went back “Cant leave my buddies behind.” A quick happy thought or prayer for these guys & gals while we enjoy what they are putting their lives on the line for.....
