I'm so proud to have served, but it's the poor bastards who couldn't/didn't return who deserve all the praise....

Some gave a little, some gave a lot, some gave all. Let us not forget the price that was paid for freedom.

Another shout out to all our veterans; I listened as a fellow veteran was being greeted by school children at our Veterans Day ceremony (masks and proper distance maintained), I was struck by his reply: "You were worth it."
I trust we can all say to all Americans in this great country, to all those liberated, to all those who walk free of tyranny because of American Forces - "You were worth it."
May God continue to bless us.
