Veteran's Day

[CobraII]

Thank you to every veteran has served, be it during war or peace. Most especially to my uncle, still working thrugh the effects of PTSD 40 years after his service in Vietnam, and my cousin's husband, readying for his second deployment to Iraq.
Caught in the action of kill or be killed, greater love hath no man than to lay down his life for a friend.
I also think of all veteran's with this song, Travelin' Soldier, by the Dixie Chicks (forget about their politics and read the lyrics):

And this one from Sammy Hagar (back up by Mike Reno of Loverboy), Remember the Heroes:

For the past 2year, PRP has had the honor of having the local Army class take their swearing in oath on the starting line. I think of them every time I stage.

Thank you to all those who lived and died for our country and freedoms. And to your families who also have to sacrifice so much.

Thank you to all the vets.

My old man served on the USS Oriskany from '64-'68. Supposedly, an aircraft carrier was one of the safest places to be during Viet Nam, but his ship had a fire in '66. He was in Damage Control. His job was to fight the fire. He got burnt up pretty bad, but 44 other men died.

McCain actually flew off the Oriskany the day he was shot down and captured.
