God Bless Our Veterans!

Happy Veteran's Day to all those who have served, are serving now and will serve in the future. A special thanks to their families for they serve right along with them and in many cases they are the ones that suffer the most.
I have a very special place in my heart for all of you. I think it's right next to the goose bumps I get when I see the American Flag being raised or the roar of the jets flying overhead during The National Anthem.
I would just like to touch on one aspect of these special people for today and that would be the young men and women and in some cases retired military personnel who have volunteered in the middle of two wars.
There is no greater show of love for your country and fellow countrymen than to lay down your life for them.
There is a young man in my neighborhood who is currently at Paris Island training to be a US Marine. This kid could have done a multitude of other things but yet he chose to serve his country. Thank you Charles you will never regret your decision.
So many others have gone to college and entered the service after 4 and sometimes more years to serve.
Thank you Ryan. (Captain Ryan)
I could go on and on (you know that though don't you) of all the jobs you could choose and you chose to protect my sorry butt?

God Bless You All!
