    To all you current and past servicemen and women out there, thank you from the bottom of my heart for all that you do for this country. Veteran's Day is not about politics, it's about those who serve (and have served), this great country. Thank You!:)

    Well thank you for appreciating it. I gotta say though, It's somewhat of an awkward feeling when people see me in uniform and say thanks and shake my hand, for me, it's just doing my duty.

    Well, I can understand that, but sometimes people lose sight of what's important in a fog of politics and bullshit. I am part of a Memorial in California and have met many active and vets clear back to WWII, hearing their stories has given me a greater appreciation for the sacrifices you folks are willing to make on our behalf, especially in an all volunteer armed forces.
