navy
my dad was a navy radio man and had some nifty gadgets he showed me once.
i had three brothers who also served in the navy....one as an leutenent. (sp)
had i been a year older, i would've been drafted in the vietnam war....
my draft number was 356 the following year and so i wasnt called to serve in the military. I am not real good with authority figures... so i didnt join.
58,000 injured men and women have given there best to spread democracy to the world with over 2000 giving their lives in our latest military conflict.
i salute all of the people of the military for their sacrifice and dedication
and their for their contibution to make america free for all of us.

Usaf 93-97. Lived in d.c for a while and every veterans day I'd go to the vietnam memorial and pay my respects. Never forget those who gave their lives for us.

There is a saying that goes something like :
If you can read, write or speak ...thank a Teacher!
If you can read, write or speak English... thank a Soldier!
Not sure if thats how it goes. But I think we get the message. My sincere thanks to those that made the ultimate sacrifice, to all the Vets and to all those currently servicing, God Bless You All.
