Thank you all for your service to our country!
Michael and Kat: You guys are most welcome. I am glad I did it and would do it again if I was able. The mil career has served me well throughout my life and now into retirement.

I also want to thank all my other military brothers for serving our great nation and especially the families that endured all those years of managing things at home while we were away.

Want to thank each and every one of you for your service to this beautiful country. It's a huge sacrifice being a lifer in the service. It is for the most part a very few that can even do this. It's a tough life on the family, and very trying. You are to be commended for your service. I did my time went to Nam and got out, not a lifer here as it wasnt for me.

FRANKGAD. Although not a US Retiree, you are still a military Retiree for your country and I salute you, Sir. Thanks for your service. BTW, my son is a 1st lt in the US Army Signal Corp.....(Reserve now but is talking about active duty). My older son did 4 years in the US Navy, My father was US Navy and Cathy's was Army Air Corp, although they did not retire.....Great tradition in my family.......I guess you could say We Love our Country, enough to die for it if need be. However, Cathy nor I saw combat.

Again, Thanks for serving....
